Thats a cool site. I recently used it to id one I found. It was a REM UMC from 1911-34. I found it MD'ing along a rock wall in the woods.

Hi baspinall

Saving them, and reloading is mandatory if you shoot trap or skeet. They can be used up to 6 times before they need to be retired, and can get the costs down to around $3 a box. (If you shop wisely for components) When you go through 200 a week, the saving can be a lot. I have a 30 gal trash can full of empties just waiting to be used. (Someone gave them to me).

Thanks
Leo
