The primers exhibit a bright, silver-toned metallic finish and are housed in white plastic grid trays. The packaging displays the Federal Ammunition logo alongside the Champion brand name, with clear text identifying them as small rifle primers. The lot includes a partial group of eight trays, each containing 100 primers, for a total of 800 primers. The exterior cardboard packaging and inner sleeves feature a blue and black design and remain in good condition. Note – All modern ammunition components must be handled in accordance with local, state, and federal regulations.
Condition report:
The primers appear to be in excellent, unused condition with no visible signs of corrosion or oxidation on the metallic cups. The white plastic trays are intact and hold the primers securely. The cardboard outer boxes and inner sleeves show light shelf wear, including minor scuffing at the edges and slight crushing at the corners, consistent with storage. The primers appear to be live; however, mechanical function and ignition reliability have not been tested.
