When my father-in-law passed away and we were cleaning out the house my wife found 3-4 boxes of NIB, Winchester, 12 ga., buckshot and slug loads in paper hulls. He was neither a hunter or shooter so I know he bought them years ago when he was a deputy sheriff. I just brought them home and added them to my shelf. A friend who owned a gun shop called me about some very old, Winchester, 16 bore paper hulls he came across in some kind of trade deal. They're roll crimped, kind of a tan color and most are in very good to excellent condition....though the box is roached. I don't shoot or reload paper hulls simply because I don't shoot much shotgun....and I couldn't bring myself to shoot any I have. I do enjoy having them, however. Dad and I loaded piles of them when I was a kid. They do have a distinct, pleasant aroma.
