Many reloaded anyway. Lots of fun to watch the giant plumes of smoke from a black powder shoot! Perry M. Kissam NRA Patriot Life Member

Lots of fun to watch the giant plumes of smoke from a black powder shoot! As one of those cowboy shooters, virtually all of us reload. Last time I checked (several years ago) commercial black powder shotgun shells were at least a $1 per shell, not counting shipping, taxes and maybe the Hazmat fee. I've never seen the Navy Arms shells I have become addicted to English hammered shotguns to the detriment of my wallet.

I recall seeing BSA retailed shotgun cartridges in similar packaging. Pictures of the other sides or ends of the box and head stamp would give more info.
