GuestJune 11, 2021 at 10:31 pmThe markings around the primer are probably gonna be necessary to figure out who made the ammo but it looks like Norinco manufactured ammo

GuestJune 11, 2021 at 10:31 pmSo for context my friend received an SKS with these rounds for free having discovered it a remodel and the owner having them in the previous owner of this firearm The SKS is a norinko manufactured rifle missing the spike bayonet. imported via Chinasports. I’m generally familiar with most cartridges but the fact that this looks like it’s copper on copper is odd to me

GuestJune 11, 2021 at 10:31 pmLooks just like 1980’s Chinese steel core ball. Came on those same stripper clips too. Mildly corrosive. Head stamps were double-digit numbers at 12 and 6 o’clock.
