Thanks for the info.  This stuff looks better than the Winchester that Wallyworld sells.

I tried several case ID sites and came up empty.

Yep SA milsurp, it shoots pretty Hot , pretty accurate and burns very clean and very low Flash, ideal for SHTF ammo.

I hear that New Shipments are on the way over from SA.
