Description

This lot comprises a diverse collection of approximately 886 rounds of .22 caliber rimfire ammunition from several prominent manufacturers, primarily presented in a mix of vintage and modern commercial packaging. The assortment features two boxes of Federal American Eagle 45-grain suppressor copper-plated solid rounds; one partial vintage box of Remington Hi-Speed 50-count rimfire cartridges; and three boxes of Western Super-X rimfire cartridges, consisting of one full and two partial boxes containing copper-plated bullets. A distinctive large 100-round yellow plastic dispenser box of Remington High Velocity rounds is included, alongside specialized loads such as one box of Aguila .22 Colibrí 20-grain lead bullet cartridges, one box of CCI Quiet-22 40-grain lead round nose rounds, and one large box of Winchester Wildcat 22 High Velocity rounds. The collection is further rounded out by two vintage plastic cases of CCI .22 Long Rifle Shotshell (product number 00039) and one box of Gemtech World-Class Ammunition 42-grain match subsonic rounds. Visual inspection of open boxes reveals brass casings with diverse headstamps including F for Federal, R for Remington, and SUPER for Western. The variety of loads, including subsonic, shotshell, and suppressor-ready options, alongside the presence of vintage packaging, makes this a comprehensive lot for the rimfire enthusiast or collector. Note – All firearms require a federal 4473 background check.


Condition report:

The condition of the ammunition and packaging varies throughout the lot. Modern packaging, including the Federal American Eagle and Gemtech boxes, appears in excellent condition with minimal shelf wear. The vintage cardboard boxes, particularly the Remington Hi-Speed and Western Super-X examples, show significant signs of age and shelf wear including fraying, tearing at the end flaps, and light staining. The yellow Remington plastic dispenser and CCI plastic shotshell cases remain structurally sound with minor surface scuffing. Cartridges inspected in open boxes show clean brass casings and intact bullets; however, as with all vintage ammunition, the cartridges are sold as-is and have not been function tested.
