I got a couple boxes of old shotgun shells which look like our normal shells today but this one is older.
I have been trying to date it to see if it's worth keeping and as close as I can get is 1934 according to this web page on shotgun shell identification.

The shell is plastic construction with a brass base.
What does the 2½-1 mean. I think the 2½ is the cartridge length but not the -1. The 5 is the shot size.
Interesting that my 2-3/4 12 ga shell also meausre 2½".
I should know this but have forgotten. Stinks getting old. Lol!
