This is non GMC, but since the subject is ammo cans, I still have a couple
WW II leftovers somewhere in our barn which I got free in ' 62 . Our
youngest son, then about 5 yrs old, was playing with his kitten when he was
called for dinner. After, he looked for his kitten , we learned the hard way
that ammo cans are not only water proof but also air proof. But, so you don't
think badly of him, a short time after that, he was playing with his cat
whisker crystal set when he pulled on his mother's skirt and said "Mom, the
President' been shot". Yes, that's how we learned of JFK's assasination.

Best rifle to shoot these rounds are made by Barrett but will set you back
more then a reaction arm brake system. Fun stuff to shoot if you have
access to a nice range :)
