Default Sears Center fire Rifle ammo

A friend bought several boxes of Sears centerfire rifle ammo at a estate sale. Specifically 30-06 180 gr. SP. Found plenty of references to rimfire and a few shotgun shells. Does anyone know how to read product codes, approximate value, etc. I can't figure out how to post pics, but there is auction on Gunbroker with the same ammo. Don't know if I would break the rules by posting the auction or the reference number so I will not post it. I just need a bit more info on that particular item. Reached out to several gun friends so I thought there must be someone here to give me info or a place to look.

Shoot it and keep the box as a collector's item. Not much value in 'Department store' ammo boxes.

Back at one time, Sears stocked lots of ammo in various calibers under their house brand name. I believe Federal made it. Sears pretty well got out of the business of selling guns and ammo in the late 1960s. When I was living in Western Maryland at that time, the local Sears store had a closeout sale, and I bought a fairly large quantity of .22 and 12 gauge at half price. I still have some of it.
