Says "RORG 29" or "RORG 92". Any ideas? For sure a 5.56 round, just wondering where it came from. Thanks.

Wait, I am a silly bitch. This is the Radway green stuff, isn't it?

Definate Radway Green. If the round isn't .303 Brit, then I would say a 92 headstamp instead of the 29.

I have some RORG 43.

Thanks to everyone who helped me understand I am a silly bitch. I was curious about the headstamp and then I looked at some of my own ammo and surprise! There it was. Here's the story: My mom works at a very upscale women's clothing retailer and was putting some clothes on the rack when surprise! She finds a live round in the box. She calls my dad who goes over there and he knows what it is, 5.56mm. So she has to give it to her manager who of course, all these upscale women, they freak out. They even come up with ridiculous stories about how little children are being forced to make and pack these clothes in the ghetto of India and the guard standing over one of them somehow dropped a round into the shipping box. Freaks. Anyways, she writes down the headstamp and when she was over at my place the other day she tells me about it. Long story short, the round ended up in the hands of her district manager who was worried it was shot into the box (yeah, casing and all, Ms. Fuckhead) but passed it up the ladder or whatever to be "investigated".

Here's what I'm worried about: This round will end up on some idiot's desk who won't know what to do with it and trash it and then DAMN! A perfectly good round goes to waste.
