So my son and I are cruising the gun show today and I spot this odd looking box of 357 MAX ammo... The seller isn't there, but the guy watching his table says the box is $5.... I gotta look....

I think these were supposed to be $5 EACH 🙂

Factory Remington PROOF loads WOW

I love gun shows  no matter how ridiculous they get.  I hope that they grow but with all the legislation against them I can't see it. I do hate how they have started turning them into craft shows. No matter what you got a good find. ? How old is your son that you mentioned?

My eldest is 11 -- he likes to go with me.  My youngest is 8....he woke up and put his order in then went back to bed..."Dad--pick me up a knife..."  I got him a nice SOG folder.

LOL I like putting the order in too funny. I remember my first gun show with my dad I was woooooed like never before but that was when the gun show was almost a two day event just to see every tabel. I know that some of the table owners wasn't happy with a 9 handling their hardware until I was able to tell them what it was that I was looking at. My dad didn't let me handle anything that I didn't know about or was interested in purchasing. I look forward to getting my daughter who is 2 1/2 now into whole outdoors and hunting and shooting. I know that she's still young but I just bought her a Steven's 22/20 o/u my wife thinks I'm Screwy and she's like poke.

Wisconsinshooter I have a little girl about the same age and am looking forward to the same thing! I actually picked up a S&W 34 a year or so ago to have when it comes time to start teaching her.  I might have to pickup a little chipmunk before long!

Sorry to side track the thread!  Shoot you certainly have a way of finding some cool stuff!  Very cool find! occasion

I have several proof boxes in my collection, but not that one. That is a great score, considering most of the recent proof boxes are going for $50+. I would not even consider shooting a round of those in anything I owned.
