Well, I would say if it's more than a couple months old, send me a few hundred rounds and I'll let you know if they're still good or not.

They may just be beyond hope. Every case head I've looked at says "09". :roll:

We recently went to the ranch and fired some 30.06, shotgun and 38 that my dad loaded a couple years before my oldest was born..... She is 19. Bang EVERY time! Kinda cool experience for me... he always loved going to the range, and I miss that with him since he is gone. But it was like he was there with us and the girls'cause it was his hand loaded ammo. :thumbs2:
