Lot 424:
A Group of 92 Rounds Winchester and Federal Power-Shok Ammunition .30-30 Winchester
Description
This lot consists of a verified total of 92 rounds of .30-30 Winchester centerfire rifle ammunition from two prominent manufacturers, Winchester and Federal. The collection is housed in five original factory boxes, containing a variety of bullet weights and constructions. The Winchester portion includes two boxes originally for 150-grain Power-Point bullets; one box is full with 20 rounds, while the second is partial with 12 rounds, for a total of 32 Winchester rounds bearing “WINCHESTER 30-30 WIN” headstamps. The Federal group includes three boxes of Power-Shok ammunition: two boxes are full with 20 rounds each of 150-grain Soft Point Flat Nose (FN) cartridges (product code 3030A), and one box is full with 20 rounds of 170-grain Soft Point Round Nose (RN) cartridges (product code 3030B). All 60 Federal cartridges feature “F C 30-30 WIN” headstamps. These rounds are standard brass-cased loads intended for use in lever-action and other .30-30 caliber rifles, featuring lead soft-point tips for hunting applications. The vintage packaging displays significant shelf wear, and the cartridges exhibit various degrees of age-related tarnish and surface oxidation.
