Never Had This Happen Before

So the other evening I sit down to load up a batch of .243 cartridges. I open up a new, factory-sealed box of Speer 105 gr spitzers and proceed to start loading. As I am seating bullets, I noticed that one bullet that I retrieved from the box just felt different. Investigation revealed that my new box of 6mm bullets contained one 160 grain 7mm bullet. Never had this happen before - guess this is one more thing I have to watch for in the future. If nothing else, it gives me a perfect excuse to purchase a new 7mm caliber rifle.

Oh Paul...



They were cases for the new factory wildcat...the .356-.358 WSSMBFG Winchester!

A while back, I bought a large batch of .358 Win. brass in bulk. While running them through the sizing die to insure the necks were round, six rounds refused to go into the shellholder. They were stamped .358 Win., but would only enter the 30-30 shellholder. How about six rounds of .356 Win. stamped .358 Win.?
I wonder if they have any collector value?
