Cartridge box labels
« on: June 08, 2007, 09:21:58 PM »
I have been playing on the computer and did some Cleaning of images I found on the web.  Thought I would share in case anyone wants to print some themselves.






This is an original Remmington Box I copied from the SCORRS  forum, wasn't sure if the circle should have been complete, so I did both.

Thank ya all kindly. I also am planning on doing some "fun" labels with some joke names...I have a couple of ideas going around my feeble head, but if any of you have any cool ideas for a name let us know...

I am also thinking of putting me and Old Top's names and pix on the endlabel with an endorsement: like "they always make it out the end of the barrel"

thanks again and lets see what ya come up with

I saw a shooter on the SASS Wire who had a pretty cool "company name" for his stuff:

Wimpy Loadz Cartridge Company


While MY loads are about as far from "wimpy" as you can get, I appreciated the humor.  (Humour for our Canadian & British friends)  ;)

According to a couple pards I shot with yesterday, mine not only flamed and smoked, but I was told by Deadeye Don that they produced the 1st concussion he'd experienced at an NCOWS match  - or any other.
 ;D

And yes, my loads are SAFE and actually a skosh lower than the original 45 Colt load of 40 grs. of 2f; mine are 37.2 - 37.5 grs. of 3f Goex pushin' a 250 gr. BigLube boolit.

They're fun.

 ;)

Back to labels & Boxes - sorry I strayed. ::)

Thanks SHB

That waz one of the names I waz tryin to remember.

Old Top doesn't load the Black, but he does occasionly load it a bit on the stout side, me thinks. I usually am at the loading table, and it about knocks me over. He loads as he says "the one true cartridge"...and uses Clays, but sometimes I think he is going for buffalo

now back to our regular entertainment..

FWIW, I recently posted up a couple of labels which are facsimiles of 19th Century originals, which I thought might be of interest to my fellow Canucks .... put them in the "Chinook Country" forum, but of course anyone who is so inclined is free to use them -

I will double tap this on the Chinook forum, but if you print this one on green paper, it should look fresh off the wagon from Montreal

Been 10 years since I used Mogorilla's labels?!  Ready to make more but pictures are no longer available.  Interested in the 12 gauge labels, anyone saved the JPGs?
