Show your milsurp ammunition!
I wanted to start a thread for the ammo collectors out there. Any rifle or handgun ammunition that was once used by a nations military but no longer is. I want no one left out. To my collecting brothers in Europe, please post your spent cartridges that you have a long with a little info as well. I definitely know there are still cartridges I have never seen and am looking forward to everyone's input. Thanks!
