Reread paragraph #2....."These were Remington #11's from a sealed package bought on Friday."...not bought on Friday 25 years ago....last Friday...July 15, 2005. SEALED bubble package, Remingtons from Dick's Sporting Goods.
OK, I missed that, I'm old and have kids yelling all day...
Do you have any 25 year old caps to try? :haha:
