Bought some S&B SS109 from a guy or it was claimed to be SS109, when i get it the battle packs say ORDINARIO on them, and the bullets do NOT attract a magnet. Dont beleive the seller is trying to screw me but he claims all S&B 5.56 is Steel core SS109 like British Radway Green SS109, i do beleive that to be wrong as i have had S&B SS109 and its all green tipped, this stuff i just bought is NOT green tip and doesnt attract the magnet.

M193 or SS109????

My S&B SS109 has a nice green tip and the head stamp I think reads ZV(none in front of me).  The boxes are blue with SS109 on it.  Never put a magnet to it as it is pretty clear what it is.

Seems weird to me
All the Radway, M855 (WCC), XM855PD and CS I've got attracts a magnet.
