INCREDIBLE collection, Andy! It is so awesome seeing these group photos. I recognize a ton of them LOL! Just beautiful! The hunt never stops and I got my eye out on this side of the pond for you as always. Just so cool seeing the entire collection in photos like this. MASSIVE COLLECTION!

RIGBY,

WOW! Your collection is extreme as well. LOVE how you were able to catalog the collection in photos with their headstamps underneath like that, all so perfectly scaled. Just awesome!

Thanks for the compliment.
I like to take good pictures of my cartridges.
Good pictures are good for identification and presentation.
I also try to make good pictures of my belt members.
For this I will make an extra thread.
Here are some Swiss drill cartridges.

RIGBY - It is really incredible how you catalog your collection. Each photo is perfect, but the way you keep everything scaled so accurately is mind boggling. Just awesome!

Thanks for the compliment.
It was difficult in the beginning... but now I'm starting to routine. :tinysmile_grin_t:
With Photoshop and help lines it is quite easy.

Super. Here is a shot of my Japanese drill rounds, 20mm up to 76.2mm. These are hard to get.
