Yes I know there is another thread, but this is a bit more of a specific question.

Now before you read this please recognize that some of the green boxes still have the "older" original style ammo using the brass plated projectiles and 3 prong crimp


Does anyone here have both box types? Why I ask....

The White Box has a 3 Prong Crimp and a 123gr brass jacketed Projectile (possibly explaining the 1gr lighter weight)

The Green Box has a circle more standard crimp, claims 123gr Projectile again, but the color of the actual projectile makes me believe it is copper jacketed, and very possibly 124gr.


Which leads to the question. Does anyone here have an old and new box for comparison, and possibly a scale to weight the different projectiles.

new box.



new crimp.
