Description

This lot consists of a brick of Remington Thunderbolt High Velocity .22 Long Rifle ammunition, totaling 500 rimfire cartridges. The ammunition is housed in a green and white folding cardboard carton featuring the yellow Remington Thunderbolt logo and stylized lightning bolt graphics. The packaging identifies the contents as round nose (RN) lead bullets. The side panel bears the product code TB22A and includes bilingual safety warnings in English and French. The cartridges feature brass casings with a headstamp consisting of a printed lowercase script “Rem”. The projectiles are lead round nose (LRN) bullets displaying a dark gray finish.


Condition report:

The exterior cardboard packaging shows significant wear consistent with handling and storage, including creasing across the top and side panels (photo 1), fraying and minor tearing at the corners (photo 2), and softened edges on the opening flaps. The interior cardboard tray is intact but shows light discoloration (photo 3). The ammunition itself appears to be in fair condition, though several projectiles exhibit visible surface oxidation and a dull, dark gray patina (photo 3).
