Ammo identification help 7.62x51

[dchan521]

Hi, please help identify this 7.62x51 ammo. They all say RG 60 L2A2. They come on stripper lips that say "SEY" on the back of them. Looks copper washed. Bullet and case attracts a magnet. Thanks

As the link says fake Brit Radway Green ammo and likely corrosive. I still run across it from time to time usually in like a sealed 300 round can with a carry strap.

For the fake M14 that the Chinese made to supply commie rebels in SE Asia. They elected not to follow through with it, thus the surplus M14-types sold cheap. And the ammo. That's what I recall reading.

Good grief, the link is in the second post in this thread.

Should I sell this ammo? Doesn't sound like it is very friendly to shoot through my bolt-action or AR-10.
