Did anyone find something they needed at the Ward's Auction last night?
I bought a few neat items. And now I wait for the painful shipping costs.

Wow!! Santa Cruz, Calif.!! I was there a couple of hours ago. Weary road warriors should not show up in Monterey or Santa Cruz on Saturday night without a reservation!! Gone to ground in Los Gatos.

My last trip to Santa Cruz was the same day as the Nude Bike Ride through town. Not quite the view I had come to see.

That is a spectacular box Jason. I liked the Peoria Hardware box but it went over my allowance.

Just to be clear this box sold for $8,050 and is out of my price range too.

Because of our travels, I didn't play in the recent Ward's Auction. Just looking through the auction today and some truly interesting stuff. These caught my eye --
- 16-gauge 3-inch loaded with DuPont De Luxe

- 2-inch .410-bore shells with BB shot
- NITRO CLUB .410-bore, 2 inch, BB.jpg (110.45 KiB) Viewed 24998 times
How many BBs in 3/10 ounce of shot?? Quite the pattern!!

Normally I look closer but didn't pick up the Arrow box either.
I was too spell struck by the Pre-Rem UMC Arrow in #1 shot and was one shell away from owning it! Lol
Thanks All!

Well I will admit as a Canadian I couldn't let this one go.
In all my years at gunshows I have never seen this Dominion Sovereign box.

No guns, but picked up enough shell boxes to keep me happy.

I don't know what came over me but I was captivated by that damn, Dupont powder poster. Was up till 3 am bidding. God, I hate that "no end until all bidding stops" S.O.P.!!
