Description

This lot consists of 145 rounds of .357 Magnum handgun ammunition housed in two MTM plastic storage cases. The ammunition is categorized as hand-reloaded, as indicated by the detailed Load Information labels on the interior lids of both boxes. The grey box contains 93 rounds with nickel-plated casings, while the red box contains 52 rounds with brass casings. Both labels specify a load comprising a 125 grain Jacketed Hollow Point (JHP) bullet, 18.5 grains of W296 powder, and Winchester Magnum primers, with handwritten notes indicating a date of 2-90. Key markings on the labels include The MTM Molded Products Company, 5680 Webster Street – Dayton, Ohio 45414, and specific load data for bullet, powder, and primer. The casings feature mixed headstamps, with transcriptions identifying manufacturers such as W-W SUPER, R-P, FEDERAL, SPEER, and FRONTIER. Each box displays one sample round positioned horizontally to show the semi-jacketed hollow point projectile and copper-colored jacket. The plastic cases show minor shelf wear but remain in good functional condition.
