Steel jacketed 9mm

[DTFerg1595]

Does anyone know anything more about them? As far as bullet weight, priming (boxer/berdan), corrosive primer or not. Also what do the markings on the clip mean?

After quick search

Cupronickel bullet . Probably corrosive primed

Listed AP - banned for import in 94

No bueno in this state id guess

and steel jacketed bullets dont "tear up your barrel". Sure an increase in wear over many thousands of rounds, Not a big deal, they are very common- Wolf, Tula, most spam can surplus ammo.

Thanks everyone, you guys were a major help, I seriously spent an hour googling what they could be.

It's not exactly a steel jacket.... so it's not steel on steel going down the barrel.

In addition to using steel casing, certain types of Wolf rifle cartridges use steel jacketed bullets, which are often copper-plated and cosmetically similar to standard copper-jacketed bullets. The copper exterior of the bullet is approximately .005 inch thick, with an underlying steel jacket of about 1/32 inch thick. This type of ammunition is labeled "bimetal". Indoor shooting ranges, which use backstops often constructed of steel, have accordingly widely prohibited steel-jacketed and bimetal ammunition to prevent shooters from damaging their backstops.

Ya, I have no intention on firing these, I think I'll just run em through my tumbler to clean em up and then put them away in my safe.
