Description

A substantial lot of 400 individual rifle projectiles intended for handloading and reloading. This collection features components from two highly respected manufacturers, Nosler and Sierra, primarily in .30 Caliber (.308 diameter). The lot comprises various bullet tips and designs suitable for match shooting, hunting, and target practice. Specific Nosler offerings include 180-grain Solid Base and Partition Protected Point projectiles, as well as Ballistic Tip designs. Sierra offerings include 200-grain Match King bullets, 180-grain Spitzers, 165-grain Boat Tail Spitzers, and 170-grain Flat Nose projectiles, including older boxes marked Sierra Bullets and GameKing. The projectiles are copper-jacketed, featuring both exposed lead tips and green polymer tips, covering a weight range from 165 grains to 200 grains. This lot is sold as reloading components only. It is the buyer’s responsibility to ensure compliance with all local, state, and federal firearms laws regarding the purchase and use of reloading components.
Condition: The lot consists of eight boxes of vintage factory-packaged components. The packaging exhibits moderate to heavy wear, including fading, edge tears, handwritten notations (including weight notations like 156 Gr), and original retail price stickers, indicating age and storage wear. The projectiles themselves, including the various bullet tips, appear to be in excellent, unfired condition, showing clean copper jacketing with no visible corrosion or damage. The contents include both exposed lead tip projectiles and polymer-tipped projectiles. We have not verified the exact count within each box, but the lot is sold as a guaranteed total of 400 projectiles.
