...not me. I have 8 different rounds in my collection. I know there are some of you with monstrous collections. Let's hear how many different types you have and crown the king!

Bullets, or cartridges?

More than 20 for certain.

(Somewhere around 25-30 but would have to sit and think or look at stocks.)

Umm.. you have to be able to load it in a FsN and shoot it. Well, unless you have an SS90 prototype. That won't load, but it still counts.

Impressive. You mean you don't have one of each all lined up somewhere? :)

There are (or were) a couple of pics of collections on here. Might take some searching though.

Yeah, I remember seeing a picture that included a caseless 5.7 cartridge.. crazy. But are those people active anymore? We need an active member to be crowned the new "King".

Look no further than the ammunition table thread...

The "old" king was Warwolf for obvious reasons. I don't think he has been seen lately though has he?

Scroll down a bit to see a massive 5.7 collection:

What, like a shelf with cartridges instead of Star Wars figures? ;)

Nah. Nothing lined up. All properly stored in magazines and containers.

Shouldn't this clone thread be merged with the original thread?

You should probably fix your title to say "cartridges"; that way when you start your inevitable poll and add it to this thread, people will have a clearer understanding of what you actually mean.

Just don't forget to include "EA Restricted". :thumb:

I only have a few 5.7 cartridges, but I think I win with the widest assortment of all calibers. I'll crown my self king of metal cased cartridge collecting here. :D

No doubt. I read your thread which documented your journey form a very modest bullet collection to a quite impressive one. However, I noticed you are missing .338 Lapua Mag. :)

Here's your thread. It was quite interesting:

Well would "we" feel comfortable enough to enumerate all of them? :) I understand if you don't want to, but 26 is a _ _ _ _ -load of 5.7 rounds and I would feel comfortable crowing your arse king if you did. I believe Warwolf had 22 in his display...

Some of Warwolf's rounds are plain crazy-looking..

How do you like your new hat?

You could easily get a couple more with SB193 and SS196, but I know you don't buy bullets just for the sake of collecting.

Sure there are those and QuieTOR and CCC loads, but we don't collect. We test and shoot.

Grazie for the crown. ;)

haha; I read it this morning and thought it was quaint that he printed out "DevastaTOR 4.0"

I am a little disappointed that there isn't a block for the Tactical Incendiary Tracking Seeking Neutralizing Ammunition for Selective Suppression found by Greenberg back 2012 but those are probably too hard to get.

I have a second board that I can add that one to. :laugh: :laugh: This collection originally started off for ones that I had purchased and fired, but then decided to change it some and add any and all that I could find. There are still some open slots in the frame that I have not decided on what round to put into it. I also have a smaller frame with nothing but factory FNH rounds. Its missing the SS90, SS91, L191, and the movie blanks.

Why not? It's not a computer thing...
Gotta click on Grimm's pic, then when it opens in Photobucket, click on the magnifying glass in the lower left corner, then do it again.
That should show you the full size pic.

If not, blame Photobucket.
