I was cleaning out a basement closet this past weekend- one that has a spot under the stairs where stuff got unloaded and forgotten for almost 11 years... So one box was really heavy. And in it was...
5 bricks of .22lr
20 boxes of .22mag
7 boxes of factory .257 Bob ($10.00 a box- I remember getting these from the old hardware store in Clarksburg WV- they were on sale)
5 or 6 boxes of 12ga buckshot, 2.75", 2-3 boxes 12ga buck 3" and 3 boxes of 20ga buckshot
3-4 boxes of 12ga #4 and #5- low brass
3-4 boxes of 12 ga slugs
5 boxes of .308win (hunting)
A big bag of brass including .257, .35rem, .30-06 and .308
Holy crap I had totally forgot about all this stuff, lol. I'm glad I've got some more plinkin ammo!
Over the last 5-6 years, I’ve bought stuff and threw it in one of the many storage bins I have in my garage. After retiring at the beginning of the year, I’ve decided to finally inventory all the stuff in those bins and I came across a stash of ammo I bought 3-4 years ago.
A nice surprise to find an extra 500rds of Winchester 9mm FMJs and 500rds of Winchester .45 FMJs... I guess I bought them while they were on sale somewhere... I also found lots of gun parts and magazines that I forgot about too... I wish I would have found some extra .223!!
On a side note, I just bought a new take-down tool for my HK P7 pistol 2-3 months ago for big $$, to only find my original P7 tool last week.
If you’re a gun guy, with either a garage or a serious man cave, check it out, I’d bet you’ll find stuff you forgotten about.

Yeah, I consolidated all the parts, supplies, and ammo to two locations over Xmas. The indoor half is my man cave, with a work table and some small to larger bins for the stuff. It's a bit dull to not find any nice surprises anymore, but was nice to discover I have plenty of spare 45acp. I've hung up the irons other than dinking around with my Beretta 81 in 32acp, too see what sort of national malarkey develops.

Ha, I do that too. I’ll buy some special tool I need, then find the same tool in my stuff later. I’ve got to much stuff and a bad memory.
