Yeah! Great find!
I picked up 10 boxes of the 16 ga lite sportload at an estate sale last summer.

Gave one box to a collector that runs my favorite sporting goods store. He has a "wall of fame".

Tried half a box on clays and they busted them like nothing I have shot in a while. They are earmarked for quail and have done a really good job thus far.

Went to Sears for everything when I was a kid!

Regards,
Chuck

Chuck I thought that I would offer them to any collectors or guys that would like them for their gun cabinets as they are most likely 45 - 50 years old. If no one is interested than you can rest assured they will go through the Sweet 16 or the FAIR next hunting season as they still shoot just fine! Original price tags are on the at $ 2.19 & 2.29 a box, heck that won't even buy a box of empty hulls today.

Take care and keep enjoying your 16's!
