Description
This lot consists of a group of Winchester Super-X 12 gauge rifled slug ammunition, comprising three retail boxes containing a verified total of 45 rounds. The packaging identifies these as 2 3/4 inch shells featuring a 1 oz. rifled slug hollow point. Technical specifications printed on the boxes list a muzzle velocity of 1600 fps. The reverse of the boxes includes a ballistics table detailing trajectory data from 25 to 125 yards, noting that the ammunition is designed for use in smooth bore barrels to provide superior stopping power. Each box is printed with the Winchester brand logo and the Super-X mark. The individual shells feature red plastic hulls with brass-colored bases, bearing printed markings of the Super-X logo, “2 3/4 IN-1 OZ,” and arrows indicating “70mm.”.
