Lot 520:
Federal, Remington, and Peters .32 S&W Long Centerfire Ammunition 96 Rounds
Description
This lot features a collection of vintage ammunition comprising 96 rounds of .32 S&W Long centerfire cartridges distributed across three distinct boxes from prominent manufacturers. The selection includes one box of Federal Ammunition “Champion” target load containing 26 rounds in a black plastic tray; one green Remington “High Velocity” box containing 51 rounds in a white styrofoam tray; and one blue and white Peters “Kleanbore” Priming box containing 19 rounds in a white plastic tray. All cartridges are loaded with 98-grain lead round-nose bullets and feature brass casings with visible headstamps including F-C 32 S&W LONG and R-P 32 S&W L. The packaging provides significant historical context for mid-to-late 20th-century sporting ammunition, with the Remington box bearing product code R32SWL and the Peters box displaying index number 3265 along with the DuPont logo. These rounds are intended for use in revolvers chambered for the .32 Smith & Wesson Long cartridge.
Condition report:
The ammunition appears to be in good, original condition with some expected oxidation and age-related patina to the lead bullets and brass casings. The cartridges appear live and are stored in their respective internal trays. The vintage cardboard boxes show moderate to significant shelf wear including edge fraying, scuffing, and minor staining. The Remington box has a vintage orange price sticker and the Federal box shows an old inventory label. No significant corrosion or greening is observed on the brass components.
