Local deer hunters discover charger clips..

[Adam Helmer]

This morning at 6:00 a.m. two neighbor lads came by to go rifle deer hunting on the old farm.. One had a Savage .30-06 bolt action and the other had a Winchester M70 .30-06. Both lads had spare ammo in their coat pockets and asked if the rattling sound would alarm the deer.

I provided each a few brass charger clips to keep the spare ammo from rattling. Mike exclaimed, "Sweet" when he was shown the nuances of a 5-round charger clip. We older duffers, who grew up around lots of military surplus stuff, need to realize many new kids never saw or experienced what we take for granted.
