New stuff is going for $2.00 - $2.50 per round. Do an online search for the factory boxes. Sometimes the value of an empty vintage cartridge box will surprise you. Bob

That's an interesting cartridge. This posting made me wonder what I had in .30 Remington so I had to check. I found 4 and a half boxes of factory stuff including 2 boxes of Silver Tips and a dog bone Remington box of "mushroom" Corelokts with a sticker from Montgomery Wards marked $3.05! Those Remingtons were a strange looking bullet--round nose hollow point with lead dot just below the tip. I found that I have quite a lot of fired brass as well as some new brass. Factory loads were always round nose in deference to the Rem. 14 & 141 and the Stevens 425 tubular magazines. My rifle is a Remington model 30 made in 1928. I have owned it since 1994 and found loading dies at a gun show. The rifle handles spitzer bullets just fine and delivers surprising velocity for such a small cartridge. The cartridge, like most rimless cartridges headspaces on the shoulder and, contrary to popular opinion, it should not be reloaded with .30/30 dies since that distorts the shoulder to the long slope of the .30/30 and destroys the headspace point. A friend discovered that to his chagrin when he loaded some that way: Every cartridge mis-fired.
