I don't have very many but I do have a Bullseye can like yours in the middle of the bottom pic. This year I found a nearly full can of DuPont #80 that Keith fans will recognize as the powder he used before 2400 came along.

I also managed to find an ancient tin of Sheffield percussion caps at a local antique mall.

Some real vintage in this thread. If anyone has a line on a Green Dot tin as pictured above drop me a line. I shoot a lot of that powder and would like to add an old one to my collection.

Thanks,

The lower redot can is still unopened.
Anyone know if bluedot came in this kind of can?
 
Oooooh... I just noticed the old Winchester loading tool box. Now that is beautiful! Don't think I've ever seen one of those.

Found it on GB last summer. Came with mould and loading tool.
Old pipe wrench box someone hand painted back in the day.
Newspaper was in the bottom.

I have the orange & red Bullseye can and on the back are listed Red Dot, Green Dot, Unique, etc. but Bluedot is not on there. There's a zip code in the address so Blue Dot must have come along sometime after '63.

Is that a row of 8 or so powder measures in the pic? I thought I was pretty clever having 4 different ones set up.... :cry:
