1st Attempt at Making Sharps Cartridge Boxes - chuck cook - 02-26-2017
A few day ago I tried my first attempt making cardboard cartridges boxes for my Sharps 45-70. It was a simple, inexpensive and fun project.

Those look really nice. The rifle ain't too shabby, either. Shoot straight, rdnck.

I downloaded photos of original labels, then made my own on the computer. The boxes came in a pack of 16 from Amazon.com. I purchased the green paper at Office Depot. The total cost of the boxes and green paper was under $11.
PM me your email address. I'll send you the label files. You can edit them to fit your particular cartridge.

Those are slicker than grease.
