Lot 13:
Description
This lot consists of a collection of centerfire rifle ammunition totaling 100 rounds. The ammunition is housed in five individual white cardboard folding cartons, each containing 20 cartridges. The packaging features a red and blue logo with a circle of stars surrounding the text MADE IN USA. The boxes are clearly marked CAL. 7.62mm and 147 GR. BALL. Several boxes also display the product code Q3130 on the lower right front. An examination of the cartridges reveals brass casings with copper-jacketed bullets. The visible headstamps on the base of the cartridges bear the characters W C C and the two-digit date code 0 6, indicating production by the Western Cartridge Company in 2006. This ammunition was manufactured in the United States.
