First of all dont be too sad. The ammo is not the same as you shot up. The ammo on your link isnt 22 long rifle but an obsolete round similar to long rifle ammo. It is actually 22 Winchester Automatic ammo, and was chambered in 2 firearms only, the model 1903 Winchester and the model 16 Remington. The price he is asking is on the high side as most go for @ $30 a box. The ammo you shot that was similar actually comes from the 1950's and sell for @ $5 a box. I collect antique ammo and you should just save the remainder of your 22 ammo. One thing to check for is if your Colt Woodsman is a standard velocity model or a high speed model, The ammo you shot was most likely standard velocity. If you shoot high speed ammo in a standard velocity Woodsman it will break the slide. If you are in doubt PM me and I will tell you how to tell the difference. On any antique ammo it is always better to keep it or sell it to a collector like me and buy fresh ammo to shoot.
