Gun Collectors Dream Auction #86 Collector Auction
Lot 1552:
Description
This lot features 50 rounds of Black Hills Gold ammunition chambered in 6.5-284, a premium caliber optimized for long-range target shooting and precision hunting. The ammunition is loaded with 142-grain Sierra Matchking bullets, which are widely recognized for their high ballistic coefficient and consistency. Prominent markings on the packaging include the Black Hills Gold Ammunition logo along with the caliber 6.5-284 and the bullet specification 142 Gr. Sierra Matchking. Verbatim headstamps on the brass cartridges are marked norma on the top arc and 6.5-284 on the bottom arc. The rounds are constructed with brass casings and copper-jacketed projectiles. The lot is presented in three original black factory boxes, each originally designed to hold 20 centerfire cartridges, though the verified total count for this lot is 50 rounds.
Condition report:
The three black cardboard boxes exhibit significant shelf wear, including scuffing, edge fraying, and some old sticker residue. The brass cartridge cases show minor oxidation and surface tarnish consistent with age and storage conditions. The copper-jacketed bullets are in good condition without significant corrosion. The ammunition appears live and functional.
