I am minding my own business out on the west coast earlier this week chasin guns, when I come across a tiny out of the way gunshop in Covington, Washington.
I am perusing the stores wares when I spy a tiny green Remington ammunition box back in a corner - I thought it was a box of 22 Hornet ammo, do to the size.
I asked to see the box and it contained 16 (sixteen) cartridges in 25 Steven rimfire caliber!
I had never seen a cartridge in this caliber before so I inquired if they were for sale and the shop keeper said "yeah, two bucks"!
I could NOT get the money out of my pocket fast enough.
The cartridges appear to be long copper ones instead of "brass" cased and the 25 caliber bullets are double crimped in the copper cases.
Anyone have any info on these - like what gun/guns did Stevens make in this cartridge?
The end flaps on the box are tattered and do not relay the grain weight of the rimfire bullets.
Also any info on value to cartrdige collectors would be appreciated.
Thanks in advance.
Hold into the wind
