Here's an interesting variation. Got this box in an auction, it was filled with brand new nickel IHMSA cases, however, the box somehow escaped the labeling machine. The only thing stamped anywhere on this box is the lot number on the bottom.

Sooo yeah, I happened to stumble across this thread 15 FREAKIN' YEARS after Dean started this thing! And I said to myself "hey, I have one of those"! surprised Yeah, may as well show it, I guess. screwy

Anyway, someone hand wrote the contents onto the end flap. The price tag? I got it around 2010 & at the time, I forgot all about this thread. I have no actual recollection what I paid, but I assume it was most likely in the $25 range. Looks like originally, they had to discount it to get rid of it.

And just like with Dean's box, the only factory marking is this smudged lot number...

Now the only thing we are missing in this thread is some factory DW loaded ammo head stamps! Anyone? big-grin

I have never seen a Dan Wesson Headstamp.   I assumed that all NYI Factory ammo used Starline Brass because that is what is in my boxes?

The more I think about it, I believe you are correct.

About 8 years ago I was in a local  Pawn and Gun and I found 4 boxes of DW Supermag ammo, 2 357 Max and 2 445, that had been there for a long time. Got them for $20 each box of 20.
