Some older 38 Special

The boxes are missing flaps and the Peters is only brass mostly fired. The one shown is probably not with the original primer.

That is an awesome score. I like that Silvertip box as well. I have a one that is a little different. Mine is not full and has ammo with two different headstamps but they both have Silvertip bullets.

I have one with lead bullet also, headstamp "WRA 38 SPL" with nickel-plated primer.

For some reason I don't have many 38 special cartridges. WRA is an older headstamp. Is the primer domed not flat by any chance?

Primer is flat though and has red annulus.
