It is Norinco .223 Remington in a yellow box.  It is made by China North Industries Corporation.  I bought a whole crate with 1000 rounds in it.  The crate is marked M68903027QX.  It is brass ammo stamped C J 8 all separated by 120 degrees.  

The 20 round box says non-corrosive but I have read in the archives that some were actually corrosive.  


I appreciate the help.

Non-Corrosive... it's too new and it is boxer primed.

Load it if you want, but some of the Norinco is crappy brass.

Are you sure because I was looking at these posts in the archives?

I've never had problems with the yellow box stuff being corrosive,

If in doubt, just run a couple patches soaked with Hoppes down the bore after you're done shooting. And a quick wipe off of the bolt and carrier should suffice.

Or you could just sell it all to me and let me do the worrying for you.
