    Holiday Colored Bullets

    Sometime around the Christmas holiday I found a box of CCI 22lr ammo with the bullets poly coated in red and green.
    I bought a box for a keepsake.
    I was in Sportsman Warehouse yesterday and found a 4th of July box with the bullets colored red, white and blue.
    You gotta love CCI....dale

    Maybe there should be a color experiment for POI. Let us know you're results.

    Seriously...that is pretty cool. Novelty? yes...collector value? maybe....in 2068 haha

    never got into any of the zombie stupidity, but i have purchased many of the 500count boxes of 50gr 223 zmax bullets, because its actually cheaper than buying the vmax. same bullet other than the tip color.

    I do reload some of my once fired 22 casings, and the slugs that I cast, I powder coat so I don't have to lube them.

    Are talking about me? I do have a couple boxes, one of .45acp and one .223. Some day they'll be worth millions!

    I still have some in an ammo can. Not like I'm saving it as a collectible though.
