    Would any date be better to keep? Was thinking either the 12-05 or the 01-06.

    One headstamp is no better than the other. Since they are $1 or $2 cartridges, why not keep both? Keep your eyes open for a clip and fill it with 5 rounds for a nice display.

    Why would you solder a fired primer to the bullet ?
    Well , it would be better than an unfired one I guess , but still....

    I assumed you were asking about the cartridges in a collecting sense rather than a using sense.? Either way they are a nice find with the early headstamps. They'd make a nice display with an '03 Springfield.

    Did you ever watch the Antiques Roadshow and wonder how they arrive at their guestimate? Here you have a painting on a shake shingle, and it's signed worth $20K; here you have a watch made in France in 1620, it works, chimes the hour and still has the original winding key, it too is signed valued at $3-500 dollars.
