Description
This lot consists of a verified total of 70 centerfire handgun cartridges across two partial vintage boxes. The first group includes 20 rounds of Winchester Super-X .44 Remington Magnum featuring 240-grain hollow soft point bullets. These cartridges are housed in a red plastic tray with a white foam insert and bear the W-W SUPER 44 REM MAG headstamp on the brass cases. The second group comprises 50 rounds of Remington High Velocity .44 S&W Special loaded with 200-grain lead semi-wadcutter bullets. These rounds are contained within a black plastic tray and are marked with the R – P 44 S&W SPL headstamp. Both boxes represent classic American ammunition manufacturing, with the Winchester box featuring the iconic rider logo and the Remington box displaying the traditional green and yellow livery associated with the High Velocity line. The .44 Magnum cartridges utilize a jacketed hollow soft point projectile designed for controlled expansion, while the .44 Special rounds utilize a lead semi-wadcutter profile suitable for target and field use. Note – All firearms require a federal 4473 background check.
