Description

This lot features a collection of 60 rounds of Remington brand .357 Magnum High Velocity Multiball Load ammunition, identified by model number R357MB. Each specialized cartridge contains a dual-projectile payload consisting of two 70-grain 000 buckshot pellets, totaling a 140-grain lead payload designed for increased hit probability. The cartridges utilize brass cases with R-P 357 MAGNUM headstamps and standard centerfire primers. The ammunition is contained within three original green and yellow cardboard boxes, each marked as Made in the U.S.A. The packaging includes bilingual safety warnings; interestingly, the French text contains a printing error referencing percussion laterale (rimfire), while the cartridges are clearly centerfire. This load was a notable specialty offering from Remington during the late 20th century, primarily marketed for defensive and law enforcement applications.
