Description

This lot comprises two original 25-round boxes of Winchester Super-X Upland & Small Game 16 gauge shotgun ammunition, providing a verified total of 50 rounds. These game loads are configured with 2 3/4-inch shells (70mm) containing 1 ounce of #8 lead shot, rated at a velocity of 1165 feet per second. The shells feature red ribbed plastic hulls with high brass-colored bases and black printed markings identifying them as Super-X loads. The cardboard packaging displays the classic Winchester horse and rider logo and provides detailed load specifications. One box retains a retail price sticker and includes silhouettes of a pheasant and a quail, highlighting its intended use for upland bird hunting. Shell headstamps and hull markings include the manufacturer name and shell length designations.

The cardboard boxes show minor shelf wear consistent with age, including small creases, light edge fraying, and minor corner impacts. The packaging remains structurally sound and all flaps are present.
