Recently, I was going through my boxes, looking for my 30-40 Dies--still haven't unpacked everything from last year's move--and I found two sleeves of small pistol primers, one of small rifle, and one of CCI LP Magnum primers that I have no recollection of buying. I need to look for something Else, so I can find my dies.
So, folks, what goodies have you turned up in the loading room?

I will be happy when I find my magazine for my .351 Winchester. But I did find 3 sleeves of S&B LR primers.
I found two bricks of .22 ammo during my fruitless search for SRP a couple of months ago. That was a very pleasant suprise.
I did find 1000 CCI milspec and 1000 regular CCI SRPs for $65 and $55 respectively at LGS a couple weeks later and gladly bought them.

So it's not just me! That's interesting. When I plunder to find something I usually find other stuff I been looking for ages.

1 1/2 sleeves of shotgun primers buried in a box of old felt wads that came in a whole lot buy. Whatever made me look in that? Had it since 1978!
Found 10,000 SPP hiding behind some ammo the other day
When i rearranged the man cave. I found a pound of powder i forgot i bought. It was CFE pistol or 2400. I was hoping to find a 1911 spring plug too i lost. But no luck with it.

That happened to me too.Originally Posted by BigAlofPa.
I saw it fly up & away. Even after moving, totally emptying, and cleaning the shop, I never did find it.
Best I can figure, its still in low earth orbit.

I found I had bought two of the same mold. 44 wadcutters at that.
That annoyed me enough to pull out every mold I have to bring my inventory list up to date.
Chance favors the prepared mind.
I posted a while back that I moved a box on the top shelf of my loading room and found 15,000 CCI LPP. Three cases of 5,000 each.......
An empty modified .45 ACP case will work for this part until you find the real one!

Huh, I usually just find duplicates and triplicates of stuff I have. I tend not to keep looking after I have found what I was looking for, but not always
I was testing 22 ammo in my Ruger 77-22 and found it liked Rem. Golden boolits almost as well as CCI standard velocity. Panicked because I thought I only had a couple of boxes. But I rooted around in my storage and found three bulk packs of it, after I had already traded a bulk pack of Federals for a bulk pack of Rem. Golden boolits at local gun shop.

I thought I was down to 300 large pistol primers and went looking for some small that I had put away from the last shortage thinking I could find someone willing to trade for large. What I found put away with the small were 5 brick of large pistol primers. Problem solved!

While cleaning my Desert Eagle on two separate occasion I sent the bolt alignment pin flying. Looked for days and couldn't find them. Then on the same day I found both in different places. Both places I had looked. Of course this was right after I received two new ones from Magnum Research.

15 years ago when I moved from Anaheim to Albuquerque, I lost a rifle scope I had been using on a mini-14. Nice Leupold. Then, when I moved last December, I was really hoping I'd find it but nope. Still no joy. Still looking to this day....... Ugh.

A friend called last week to see if I could take him with my truck and trailer to pick up a mower he bought. While cleaning tools out of the passenger seat I found a mag for a micro 9MM I sold two years ago. I cleaned that whole truck out and couldn't find it.
Shoved to the back of a cupboard, I found an 8 lb. jug of 2400 that I didn't know was there. I was so happy
