Gun Collectors Dream Auction #86 Collector Auction
Lot 1540:
Description
This lot features a collection of Hornady Custom centerfire rifle ammunition for the .450 Marlin chambering, comprised of sixty live cartridges and twenty once-fired empty brass casings distributed across four original cardboard boxes. The ammunition is loaded with 350-grain Flat Point Interlock bullets, designed for large game hunting and intended for use in lever-action rifles. Factory ballistic data provided on the packaging specifies a muzzle velocity of 2,100 feet per second and includes trajectory information from 100 to 300 yards. Verbatim markings on the cartridge headstamps indicate HORNADY on the upper arc and 450 MARLIN on the lower arc. The boxes are labeled with product number #8250 and describe the contents as 450 MARLIN 350 gr. Flat Point Interlock Bullet. While the packaging indicates a total capacity of 80 rounds, this lot contains sixty live rounds and twenty empty brass casings as specified by the consignor.
