Bit of an unusual one, I collect WW2 stuff but .22 is not my thing and I'm not making them inert.
Approx 650 rounds (one box is half used), some of the cardboard boxes are clearly WW2 dated, looks like they were re-packed in 65
£50 the lot ?

In the late 1970s, we used to drive over to John Longstaff's shop in Pudsey to buy a crate of 2000 of these for our pistol section. it was good stuuf, never had a misfire with it and it was not corrosive.

I used a box of this stuff about 6 months ago, made by ICI, had the odd fail to fire on the
first try but other than that it went ok.
