'40's Vintage Remington Bullets
I'm trying to find information on some Remington bullets that I have.
Box of 50, .257, 100 grain. Jacketed hollow points with what appears to be a tip of lead core visible just below the jacketed nose. I think these are roughly mid-forty's vintage. If anyone knows of an on-line information source or might be able to help if I sent pics I'd sure appreciate it. No problem sending photos but for some reason I can't post photos from my tablet.
Thanks,
Rob

Well, you can't post from a computer, either; you must first upload your photos to a photo hosting site:

Neal,
Thanks for the reply. Have tried in the past using the required photo bucket. May just be a defective brain, but thanks anyway. I may have some time tomorrow and will try again.

Here's a drawing from Philip Sharpe's book The Rifle In America editions 1938,'47,'53,'58. Not sure what year the diagram was drawn, but it's prior to the Inner-Belted design which has been in place for over fifty years. Any of these resemble your bullets?

It might help, if you gave all markings on box. 0 -
Similar to "C" in the drawings?? Sounds like the High Speed Mushroom bullet. A very popular bullet for the 257 Roberts. 1935 to 1940?? 0
