    Please help identify this 308

    It comes in an old school steel case with some kind of spray on coating which turns it brass-ish colour.

    Old milsurp .308 ammo I suspect. Anyone recognise the headstamp?

    Berdan primed steel case. The projectiles were lead cored steel jacketed with a copper wash for corrosion protection.
    I used quite a bit of it, along with their 62 gr 223. Cheap, accurate and pretty effective. Supply pretty much dried up now.
