Gun Collectors Dream Auction #86 Collector Auction
Lot 527:
Description
This bulk lot consists of 120 spent brass rifle shell casings chambered for the 6.5x54mm Mannlicher-Schonauer cartridge, specifically intended for use as reloading components. The bottlenecked cases feature a polished brass finish and have been de-primed following their previous use. Verbatim markings found on the headstamps include MIDWAY and M-S along the upper portion of the rim, with 6.5X54 inscribed at the bottom. These components represent once-fired brass manufactured by Midway and are suitable for handloaders specializing in this vintage European sporting caliber. The lot contains only empty, inert brass cases and does not include live primers, propellant, or projectiles.
Condition report:
The brass is in good used condition, exhibiting a bright polished finish with some minor surface tarnish and discoloration near the case necks typical of once-fired components. All casings appear to have been de-primed and cleaned, with primer pockets clear of debris. There are no visible signs of structural failure, such as splits in the neck or significant dents in the case bodies.
