Swartklip Shotgun shells

At a glance looks just like the old SSG or LG Swartklip loads.

Yes, even reading the label would not tell you its a specialized cartridge, my exact point, but it seems one should not shoot factory loaded ammo given to you.
(pity, last night I was given a progressive press, literally a shoe box of 158 gr bullets, a few hundred cases and 5/7 packs of 38/357 cartridges - all those long last seen names and makes - my mates Dad died)

Yea, but you know how us less fine peoples are ?

Yea, whatever.

Cheap or free ammo is cheap or free right up until it isnt.

Nice catchy statement.

I would agree if it were reloads or such, but factory ammo from the shooter up the road, the old man at the club? Even from a stranger, factory loaded is factory loaded?
Where is the "what ever you can scrounge up" in ammunition that is factory loaded and passed on if not used?
The OP was not about gifted ammo me thinks.

Its catchy because its true. Cheap or free ammo that blows up your gun becomes really expensive really quickly.

If you get bag of ammunition from sumdood how do you know that they aren't reloads? Or that he found them lying on the range one day? Or how they have been stored and otherwise treated?

Sure, if you get ammo from some guy and it comes in a box - that is actually for that ammunition- there is a good chance that it will be just fine.

That isn't what you are talking about.

Lastly, you don't get to drift a thread, then complain about thread drift in that very thread.
