Description
This lot consists of a total of 100 rounds of Remington brand .38 Special ammunition, specifically the Target Pistol/Revolver loading. The ammunition features 158 grain Lead Round Nose (LRN) projectiles seated in nickel-plated centerfire casings. The headstamps on the cartridges are clearly marked “R – P” and “38 SPL,” identifying the manufacturer as Remington-Peters and the caliber as .38 Special. The ammunition is housed in two original cardboard boxes, each containing a black plastic tray with a capacity of 50 rounds. The packaging is green and yellow with a green target graphic and features the Remington logo. The end flaps are stamped with “38 SPECIAL,” “158 GR. LEAD RN,” and “50 Rounds.” The boxes also carry the “MADE IN THE USA” mark.
Condition report:
The ammunition appears to be in good overall condition with well-preserved nickel plating on the casings and consistent lead projectiles (photo 3). The cardboard packaging shows signs of age and storage wear, including creasing, minor tearing at the corner of one flap (photo 2), and light scuffing along the edges and corners of both boxes (photo 1). The black plastic internal trays remain intact and functional.
