Vintage shot shell?

[Drifterat]

Any idea when these were made?

I would say early to mid 70's, I used the Super X in 71. Haven't seen that AA trap box before, so it could be around the same time? Cool box

I have both those in my reloading room.

The AA came out in 1965.

Super X also in the 60s.

Had a bruise from my collarbone to my elbow from shooting so many rabbits up at Friday harbor with those SuperX Magnums when I was a kid in the early 70s

Late 60s early 70s would be my guess.   The one denoteing going to plastic might narrow it down.   I have a couple of those boxes.  Love the pics.  I have one older box still full, just saving.

Those 6 magnums are death on ducks and late season roosters.  I liked 5's or 4's a little better but the 6's would hammer them. 

[SuperX]

Shot lots of 'partridge' with AA's and loved the SuperX for ducks so much I took the name for my online monicker.  WHen I started shooting the SuperX hulls were waxed paper.  They'd sometimes swell up and get stuck in the barrel, probably from my little brother dropping them in the water all the time!

I still have some loaded wax.

Found a cool article on them…

“Originally the innovation of Winchester CEO John Olin as the perfect shotshell for his Model 21 double barrel, the Super X Mark 5 became the first 'modern' plastic shotshell in the early 60s.” 

Later said 64’

I enjoy looking at old ammo boxes. Thanks for sharing!
