We have a son, male, 1 each and one daughter, grand, 1 each, along with a law, daughter-in. I enjoy the shooting sport, handguns and rifles. I reload my own ammo and for years I have been collecting sporting cartridges as well as cartridge boxes of which I have a nice collection. I also enjoy Winchesters of which I have a few old ones and I am always looking for that “right one.”
