Description

This lot features 500 rounds of Norma Eco Speed-22 .22 LR rimfire ammunition. The cartridges are comprised of brass cases and lead-free copper-plated zinc bullets weighing 1.6 grams (24 grains). The ammunition is classified as hyper-velocity, with the packaging indicating a muzzle velocity of 520 meters per second (1706 feet per second) and an energy rating of 210 joules. The cartridges are contained within a black plastic interior tray housed in a larger bulk cardboard box. Visible markings on the packaging include the Norma brand name, “ECO SPEED-22,” and “DEDICATED SINCE 1902.” The cartridges themselves bear a stamped “R” inside a shield-shaped cartouche on the headstamp. The reverse of the packaging identifies the part number “2423773” and describes the bullet type as “ZINC COPPER LAYER.” This ammunition is intended for small game, varmint, and plinking applications.


Condition report:

The ammunition and interior plastic tray appear to be in good condition. The exterior cardboard box shows moderate shelf wear, including scuffing and minor staining along the edges (photo 1). A blue mark, possibly from ink or adhesive residue, is visible on the top right front corner of the box (photo 1). No visible oxidation is present on the brass casings or copper-plated bullets in the supplied photographs.
