44-40 Winchester and Western Ammunition Boxes

Post by Bryan Austin »

Howdy guys,

I am now interested in seeing what all ammo boxes were designed and used for the 44-40 by Winchester Winchester/Western. Mainly from the Yellow pre-child warning yellow boxes all the way to present day.
Any help would be greatly appreciated. Here is what I have been working on lately.

Like the information and pictures on your site, thanks for sharing!

Isnt it amazing how many people post without reading the thread?

That's cool. I always wondered about some of those I got from my grandfather.
