I think this is cool

I found this in the house I moved into a couple month ago I decided to clean it up.

I lost the lot number when polishing the base

I thought this was a cool comparison of the next biggest round I own a 300 Win Mag

anybody know where i can find reloading data and a press big enough for this?

nice find BUT. the first rule in preserving old stuff is NEVER CLEAN IT UP, you lose value on ANY old item when you try and clean it. now if you just want to make a trash can out of it that is up to you, but they maybe very old and worth something. i am not trying to be a jerk, just lettting you know if you find something old? keep it as you found it, it will be worth more.

I know about the preserving stuff and not overly worried about this it is a 105mm howitzer round from the old M60 tanks and artillery pieces they were used up into the 80s. Just moved from Ft Knox and could find these things bein used as doorstops everywhere there. The brass is worth more than the collectible value.

[joestef214]

Winchester large howitzer?

Every day when you get home, toss all the quarters you have in your pocket into it.
By next spring, you'll be able to take the family to Disney.
