Lot 1144:
Monarch 308 Winchester 145 Grain FMJ Steel Case Ammunition 80 Rounds
Description
This lot consists of 80 rounds of Monarch brand .308 Winchester centerfire rifle ammunition. The collection is housed in four individual cardboard folding cartons, each originally containing 20 cartridges. The packaging prominently features the Monarch brand name alongside a lion crest logo. Each box is marked for .308 Win caliber with 145-grain full metal jacket (FMJ) bullets. The cartridges feature steel cases with a green lacquer coating, designed for corrosion resistance and reliable cycling. A copper-jacketed lead core projectile is seated in each case. The cartridge headstamps are clearly struck with the maker’s name “MONARCH” and the caliber “308 WIN”. The boxes include a yellow and red adhesive security sensor strip on the front face, with one strip reading “MERCHANDISE TRACKING SECURITY DEVICE INSIDE”. These rounds are typical of contemporary steel-cased sporting and practice ammunition manufactured for the Monarch brand, a trademark often associated with Academy Sports + Outdoors and manufactured in Russia.
Condition report:

The cartridges themselves appear clean with no significant signs of oxidation or damage to the green lacquer coating (photo 3). The primer pockets and primers show no signs of strikes or previous use.
