The final section includes 13 cartridges (12 in a styrofoam tray and 1 loose) with S&W .44 MAG headstamps. The assortment features a variety of bullet types, including lead round nose and jacketed soft point projectiles. Key markings on the headstamps include F C 44 REM MAG, R-P 44 REM MAG, SUPER-X 44 REM MAG, NORMA 44 MAGNUM, REM-UMC 44 MAGNUM, R-P 45 COLT, R-P 44 S&W SPL, W-W 44 S&W SPL, W R A 44 S&W SPL, WESTERN 44 S&W SPL, and S&W 44 MAG.
Condition report:
The ammunition exhibits varying degrees of surface tarnish and oxidation on the brass and nickel-plated cases. Several lead projectiles show signs of white oxidation. The Smith & Wesson cardboard box is in worn condition with significant scuffing, edge wear, and partial tearing to the flaps. The plastic storage cases show light handling wear but remain functional. The cartridges appear to be a mix of factory loads and potential handloads; they are sold as collectible components and have not been function tested.
