Headstamped PSD 96 - no other markings
7.62 X 51 FMJ
I'm guessing it is 147 gr.
MilSurp? NATO?

I had a bunch of it that was very clean cosmetically.  My Armalite AR-10 Carbine ate it up with no malfunctions.  The POI was very close to .308 Win. Ballistic Silvertip 150 gr. so I'm assuming it's 147 gr.

Any info on country of origin, manufacturer, or value would be appreciated.
ETA: any info on the primers and corrosiveness would be appreciated also.

TIA
