1) investigate old ammo collectors.....some of the boxes themselves may have value for the art etc
2) pull the bullets, dump the powder. The primed brass can be sold also the pulled projectiles can be sold.

Check with a county hazardous waste collection site. They take pretty much everything and would probably prefer it be disposed of that way than in a landfill getting run over by bulldozers...

Gun power makes a very good fertilizer for lawns. Lots of ammonia nitrate. I dropped off a bunch to a sheriff, I called before I showed up.

You have some cool stuff there, a full brick of .22 ammo, a full M1 Garand clip, vintage shotgun ammo boxes and vintage centerfire ammo. You can check the new California ammo laws that say you can't sell ammo to a private person but you can share ammo with a friend or shooting partner as long as they are not a prohibited person. You must have some fishing buddies who also shoot guns that will take it off your hands.

Are you sure about that?

If that is true the (stupid) law is unenforceable.

I hereby declare that everyone on earth is my friend. Now you can "share" ammo with me without a background check .

You have some cool stuff there. I like those in box shotgun shells .

In CA I think you would have to sell them to an FFL.

Well the range has an open lane….
If the surplus stuff they sell still fires I’m sure that still does as well. Give it a shake. Work on your groupings and most importantly clean…clean….clean your barrel after. Enjoy the range time

If you Google "California ammo laws, sharing ammo with a friend or shooting partner" it lays it all out. You can't sell it but it says you can share ammo with a hunting or shooting partner.

The old shotgun ammo is pretty collectible. Join Trapshooters Forum. You need a certain amount of posts but first but someone will surely be interested in it.
