Ammunition up close

Most people will never get close to a firearm or ammunition in their entire life; most will never want to and I get it, that's their choice. Me...well, I've been very involved with firearms (and ammunition) for almost thirty four years; it's one of my hobbies, one among many and as such, I'm very comfortable with both.

I have thousands of rounds (another term for ammunition) at home each suited to the various calibres and firearms I own; all stored within the legal guidelines naturally. I have never disclosed how many firearms I have, what calibres or which companies have manufactured them. I do that on purpose as I don't want people to know, it's no one's business. They're all legal and registered and stored in accordance with my State's firearms Legislation so I've no issues there, I just don't feel inclined to advertise what I have; I've got some pretty cool firearms though and enjoy making them work.

The other day I made some new rounds, completed the last stage of making them, and did a post on it which you can see here if you like. While I had my camera out I also took the images in this post because...well, there's no reason really I guess. Just because I can.

I'll not write many words, as the images say enough I think. All of these pictures were taken inside in my lightbox with the exception of the one directly below which I took whilst reloading ammunition out in my workshop. Anyway, it's just a collection of pictures of ammunition sort of close up so take a scroll if you like.

This is the part where I suggest that if you have any comments or questions feel free to drop them below in the aptly named comments section and I'll get back at you when I can. I know these images aren't all that great which aligns perfectly with the fact I'm not a great photographer, but they give you a chance to get a little closer to something you may never see in real life.
