So I recently came into some 405WCF ammo. I bought out a fellow vendor at my local gun show and he had some factory Hornady made 405 WCF ammo. I looked it up and it was the version Hornady made with Teddy Roosevelt on the cover with a dead Rhino. I was going to just pull all the bullets and sell the components. The problem is I live in Alaska and to ship ammo out of here is really expensive. Is it worth selling this whole and asking some one to pay for hazmat? Or just pull the bullets and sell the components?

There would have to be a significant reduction in price to even cover the cost of shipping even the components from AK.

Shopping the components would be very little just a flat rate box for the brass and bullets. But as I understand it these are collectable or am I wrong on that too?

Hornady sells the brass and both spitzer and flat point bullets, and I have ''collected'' along the way. I think the brass was about fifty five bucks cdn for fifty.

The Teddy Roosevelt box of ammo is considered collectible sort of like the John Wayne .30-.30 ammo. You may be able to Google a price on it and see what it is worth.

I have a couple of new TR boxes like that and do not plan to shoot it as I reload .405 for my 1895 and a double rifle and rarely shoot factory ammo anymore.
