For your consideration are Rare Vintage Western Cartridge Company .348 Winchester Silvertip Bullets, circa 1936-1958, two (2) 50-count boxes of 200 grain, #3420 S and one 19-count box of 150 grain, #3415 S. Western Cartridge (Winchester) .348 Winchester Silvertip ammunition is a classic, high-performance big-game load from the 1930s-1950s designed for the Model 71 lever-action rifle, one of the most powerful lever guns of its time. Western was a major cartridge manufacturer in the early-to-mid 20th century, known for their "Bullseye" powder and high-quality ammunition. The 44-40 Winchester (also known as .44 WCF) is famously called "The Round that Won the West". Introduced in 1873 for the Winchester Model 1873, it was the first centerfire cartridge that could be used in both rifles and handguns (like the Colt Single Action Army), allowing frontiersmen to carry one type of ammunition for two weapons. Winchester Repeating Arms is an iconic American brand primarily known for its lever-action rifles, famously dubbed "The Gun That Won the West". The original company founded by Oliver Winchester in 1866 no longer exists as an independent entity as it was purchased by Western Cartridge Company (later Olin Corporation) in 1931. The boxes measure 2"W x 4"L x 1.125"D and 1.875"W x 3.5"L x 1"D respectively, collective weight is 3lb, 4oz.
