    .30 short R. F.

    Which one is worth the most?
    The box or the cartridge.

    I would like to find some more cartridges to fill my box, does anybody know where I can find some.

    When you have shot one bird flying you have shot all birds flying. They are all different and they fly in different ways but the sensation is the same and the last one is as good as the first.

    That is a tough call, but I would say the box is worth more. But trying to round up 49 more cartridges could be an amazing effort though not including the cost. I would also agree in that the cartridges are going to be expensive too.

    I ran across a old auction for 30 RF. If the auction was honored in 2015, the cartridge went for $3.00 at the time. ref http://www.soldusa.com/rainworx/detail.asp?id=68317

    Wildwood - probability filling the box is slim. Box is worth more money, besides - you have it
    Value - guessing for the box ... $15

    I bet that box would go for $100 easy.

    I don't think I'll find 49 cartridges at once, that I can afford. But if someone that has three or four an so on that's what I'm
    hoping for. Otherwise I might as well sell the Pony Colt with the box should get a better price for both.
