Hello, my "all over the world" -friends.
I'm sitting here in "cold" Norway, and having a rather difficult hobby (at least in Norway!).
I have a gloving love for rifles and cartridges, and for that reason I have collected some cartridges on a shelf in my reloading -room. I'm not collecting for any vallue. I'm simply collecting for my own joy, and to have something to look at, and come up with some new prosjects and ideas.
Its quite difficult to get hold of only one round of any cartridge. If you try to buy some in a gunshop, you'll have to buy at least 20 pcs.(A whole package). And another problem is that they dont have all of theme, either.
I'm maybe naive, but can you guys PLEASE help me extend my collection??
I'll tell you what I already have:

PS. specially interrested in those Lazzeroni's. (very uncommon in Norway!!)

(SORRY, I know somebody maybe hate this one, but I had to bring it back up, again. Because I've promised to update the collection as I recieve gifts.)

I belive there was no doubt, but anyway;
Yes I'm the "old" 460wby.

Hey Dempsey.
Thans again, my friend.
I recieved a shiny, beautyfull, 8mm Rem.Mag today. You're on the board!!

Shoot well, and hit hard!

Arild
(And yes, I'm a NRA member!)

Hey Arild What prompted you to change your screen name?

Hi Bob G.
The reason is that I could'nt make my old name usable again.

------------------
Shoot well, and hit hard!

Arild
(And yes, I'm a NRA member!)

458 Wby.

Why didn't you call yourself 459WBY or 461Wby? It's closer to 460 than 458...

Magnar

Hey, shit!! Now it works.
I'm starting to get a bit schizophrenic now.
Ok, I think I'll go with my old name then. But in this tread I stay with my new name, just so I can edit it.

------------------
Arild.

Magnar.

WISEGUY!!!!!!

------------------
Arild.

I know, I know. I couldn't resist.

Magnar

Hey NoCAL.
I just recieved a beautifull specimin of a 32 Win.Special in a envelope. Together with a nice history about the cartridge to.
Thank you very much!!

(Your last name is a very common Norwegian name. There was even a very known writer with Ivar as his first name. That name exists in the neighbourhod where i work.
Where in Norway was your grandfather from? Do you know that?)

------------------
Shoot well, and hit hard!

Arild
(And yes, I'm a NRA member!)

Thank you Marvin!!!
For you big donation to my collection. This was really great. Many of these I've never heard of.

Thanks to you to, namebrother!!
For your 35 Whelen. It fits nice into my shelf, and closing a gap.

Your names and cartridges are on the list.
This really begins to take shape now.

------------------
Shoot well, and hit hard!

Arild
(And yes, I'm a NRA member!)

Hey Arild: never got a note with your mailing address, if you still want the .17AB and the 11mm Mauser...
Pedestal@subdimension.com

Thanks for your contribution, Bob G!!
I recieved two nice 30-223 Ingram's in my mail today. They have already got their place in the collection.

Pedestal.
I've tried to send you my adress before.
I tried again just now, please let me know if you dont get it.

------------------
Shoot well, and hit hard!

Arild
(And yes, I'm a NRA member!)

Hi Arild my old friend! A have a few cases that you don't have. Give me your mailing address and I'll get them off to you.
Bob McLeod
rmcleod17@attbi.com

Arild
Your welcome. I'm glad it made it ok. Now the logical next step to complete your collection is to own a firearm chambered in each cartridge on your list dempsey

I'm working on it, Dempsey!
I dont think I'll make it this year, though.

460WBY

Are you interested in handgun cases?

Are you interested in different headstamps for the same cartridge?

Send me your e-mail address for a discussion off this site.

Do you want a 7.62x54R? The Finns used this Russian cartridge against the Russians, with astonishing effectiveness in '39. Then they used it to kick the Germans out of their country at the end of the war.

Is it legal to mail these things??

Yeah, Denton!
Nazi-killers sounds great!!
You can't mail any live ammo, you have to remove the primer and powder. But that's no problem with me, I'm just collecting for my own fun. Not for any value in money, so it works fine with "dummies" for me.

Captnemo.
Yeah, I'm looking for handgun-ammo to. I'll send you a mail.

Your mailing address?

Hello denton.
My adress is sent to you on mail!

Hi Walter.
I recieved a fine looking 6,5x54mm MS (Greek) today .
Thank you very much, it's on the shelf already.
(and the list)

Hi Dudzinski. (sorry, I couldnt find your alias. It must be in my e-mailbox at work)
Nice package I recieved from you today.
Those two 30 Carbine I'll keep in the great original-box you sendt with it, from NORMA. And the whole box is on the shelf in my reloading-room, lying so the top of the box is viewable. NIIIIIICE!!!

Hey HillbillyHunter.
I'm waiting as a kid on crismasday for those cartridges;
50 AE.
416 Express.
350 Rem.Mag.
6,5 Brm.
30-40.
38-55.
Have you posted them???

And to you, LongDistanceOperator.
I'm dying to put your contribution on my list. (and shelf)
6,5 Gibbs.
7,62 UKM.
12,7x108mm


I have had some hard discussions with the postal service in Oslo today, I was backed up from my local police department to. They have stopped a package there. They finally understand that this is absolutly legal, and there will be no more problems.(AS LONG IT'S NOT LIVE AMMO THOUGH )

Hello Pedestal.
Thanks for your contribution to my collection.
Your envelope slipped trought the postal-service!!
I thought the arguing with the postal -service was over but no.
They think this is unlegal, but the police don't!! So I just told them to talk to each other, and not trought me. So it's exiting to see what they come up with.
I quite sure they cant stop this!!
But I have now applicaded for a collectors licence, and if that goes trought they cant stop me in anything. Even live ammo.(not by post, though.)

TJS and ACrecurve(?)(Andy).
Thank you guys, and god bless you!!
Today was like cristmas for me when I went for my mailbox. I've got two packages full of wonderfull cartridges!! I have just finished putting them together, and putting them on my shelf in my reloading-room.
Andy.
That was some tiny stuff!! Nice!!
And TJS.
You just got me my first NE!! Nice!!
(I could'nt give all of yours a smilie in the list. I had to spare some for Andy to. It's only possible to use 8 of them at once, you see. I love them all, though!!)

Hey 460WBY,
I'm glad you received my package--was beginning to wonder if it made it across the pond! Enjoy!
Good Hunting,

Andy

ACRecurve.
I would have recieved your package approx. a week earlier if it was'nt for the postal -customs people in Oslo. I had to argue with them a while before I got my gift.
They used a law that never exists!!!

Hello Frank.
Thank you for your Jarret, man!!

Howdy Eric.
Yesterday I recieved 9 SHINY handgun cartridges from you. They all look brand new. They have now taken place on my shelf, and I'll have to tell ya.........that collection are starting to look GOOOOOOOD!!!
(But there is still some I dont have yet, I think )
Thanks a lot, my friend!!!!!

Sorry about your Herrett, Marvin.
I flinched when I was typing it into the list, and wrote 35 Herrett instead of 357 Herrett. But it's all straighten up now.
(Wonder where that "flinching" comes from??)

Hey Peter.
Thank you for your contribution!!
The 30/338 WinMag. fits in nicely on my shelf.
I'll try to have your two "fellows" posted tomorrow.

Hey Arild

I looked at your profile; have you added another topic to your interests

Pete

358PCAK.
The interest has always been there!

He has probably been kicked out of the house because he spends too much time in his reloading room.

Yes, that may happend!!!
According to my "wife" is this a mental illness!!
(Not a hobby)

Hello Hubert.
I recived a package today, with some niiiiiicce(!!) specimens. Thank you very much for your contribution to my private collection. I guess the next winter will be less boring now.

Check the list and see what my friend Hubert brought me!! This is really starting to be a nice collection (i think), at least here in Norway.
But please, keep'em coming!! I still have room on my shelf.

Does anybody miss their contribution??
Do I still have something to look forward when I walk against the postbox??
Or have I recieved everything sendt so far??
(I'm waiting as a child for the smith to get ready with my new 338 RUM rifle!!)

You have a package of empty hulls supposedly enroute via sea mail. I sent you a message when they were mailed. Have they not arrived yet??? They include a number of antique collectables....

Paladin

Hello Paladin.
If your contribution is'nt on the list, I havent recieved it yet. I type in new shipments as soon as they arrive!!
I remember your e-mail, but I cant remember if I've recieved your cartridges. It's difficult to keep track of "who is who" when I open the package, because often it's only the true name used in the note. So often I just have to use your true first name.
