    What kind of 308 is this?

    I found an ammo can full of this 308. It appears to be all steel.

    The case markings are 19 and 34 (84? 94?)

    I'm thinking that's 7.62 x 51.

          That's probably it. Looks like "94"

          I found 396 "free" rounds!

                  Nice score! At todays rate, thats about $300 worth of ammo. If its corrosive, just clean your rifle after shooting.

                    Sweet. I'm just going to save it for a rainy day.

                    I think those corrosive primers can last a long time, right?

                      Not South African. That's brass-cased, in cardboard boxes, and the battle packs are plastic bags with a handle.

                        Its corrosive, its accurate, and was free...yes its better! It will last for 30+years easy if stored in cool, dry spot.

                            It'll destroy your gun with rust. You best throw it away, but just let me know where you dump it first.
