Got a call from a family friend this weekend, he said he had some ammo that he found and wanted to know if I wanted it. He does not know very much about guns ect, and had no clue what caliber it was. I swing by his place and its an ammo cans full of .308, approx 1100rounds. Its all headstamped "MKE O7".
Is this ammo GTG? Berdan primed or corrosive? Its all annealed brass and the primers seem to have been "staked". I don't have anything that shoots .308......yet. |

I assume the 07 is 2007 I am not personally familiar with it. Some Turkish stuff is very good others like the ATI are garbage. Hopefully someone will come along and be able to say which this is BTW, I got that info from the AR15 page: http://cartridgecollectors.org/headstampcodes.htm Wulfmann |

Quoted:
After some digging, I found it to be "american tactical" brand 150gr non corrosive boxer primed. Their M855 is garbage. I would not pay much for this but that is my opinion. There is some question that ATI is military contract rejected stuff. Again, speculation but the poor performance would suggest there is something to that Wulfmann |
