I was cleaning out a box of "junk" and found some 38 S&W, one is marked as "US 38 S&W". Several marked as "REM UMC 38 S&W" with a "U" on the primer and 7 without any marking at all. All are loaded with lead showing.
Any idea of the year and should I keep them as is or save just the brass ?

The were folded back into Winchester Western Ammo, and ceased to be a separate manufacturer in the 1930's. Prior to W W II.
The cartridge with the U.S. headstamp. Is quite likely 80 years old. Might be of interest to cartridge collectors?
The REM UMC stuff is probably of the same age. But way more common, than the US Cartridge Co.
