Gun Collectors Dream Auction #88 December 5th & 6th
Lot 1453:
Description
This lot consists of 60 rounds of custom-loaded .338 Remington Ultra Magnum (RUM) rifle ammunition produced by Texas Wheeler. The collection is housed in three original white cardboard boxes, each containing a verified total of 20 rounds stored within clear plastic bags. The ammunition features brass casings and copper-jacketed pointed bullets across three distinct load specifications. One box contains 225-grain SPBTSP bullets loaded with 92 grains of RL22 powder, rated for 3,000 fps. The second box is loaded with 225-grain NBTACC bullets and 91 grains of RL22 powder at 3,150 fps. The final box contains 225-grain BAFBTSX bullets with 87 grains of I7828 powder at 2,900 fps. The exterior of each box bears the Texas Wheeler label with contact information 817-228-7661 and [email protected], alongside illustrations of a semi-automatic pistol and a revolver. These custom-tailored cartridges were developed for high-performance hunting or long-range shooting applications in the .338 RUM chambering.
Condition report:
The ammunition appears to be in good, clean condition with no significant corrosion or oxidation visible on the brass casings or copper jackets. The cardboard boxes show light wear, including minor edge fraying, some surface staining, and handwritten load data on the end labels. Two boxes have orange price stickers marked 68.00 and one box is marked 58.00. The cartridges are contained in bags within the boxes. As this is custom-loaded ammunition, these rounds are sold as collectibles or for components only; we have not function-tested this ammunition and cannot guarantee its performance or safety in any firearm.
