Not in Oklahoma!
We had a guy in deer camp that would pick up ammo, not matter where it was.
I had just returned to camp, unloaded my 7 Rem Mag and laid the cartridges on my tailgate. I watched him pick up my shells, as I put my rifle in the truck.

He glanced at the headstamps, "what in the h*** are you shooting?"

"The Ruger Universal Magnum."

He laid the shells back in the back on the tailgate, "make sure I never get any shells from you!"

The headstamps were:
.257 Wthby Mag
.270 Wthby Mag
.300 Win Mag
.300 Wthby Mag
.338 Win Mag
.
If I went to a deer camp and had a guy like that with sticky fingers, I would make sure to find out what he is generally shooting, then load up some dummy rounds, and leave them out for him!

Maybe he get lucky and have one in the chamber and a record book buck come out and stand there for him and he pull the trigger to a "CLICK"!

I still shoot my first big game rifle, Parker Hale 1200 in 270. Still reload after 50 years. 130 Swift Scirroco. Shot a nice buck 2 years ago, don’t shoot it much anymore. Like shooting my lever guns, 444, 41 mag, 38-55, 30-30, 45 lc, 357.
I know i have extra bullets I need to get rid of.
