5.45 ball that looks a little different than the others I
have. The steel case in this lot is gray, with what might
be some light powder like coating, no visible red sealent
on case mouth or primer. All the other 5.45 I have (Russ.
and Rom.) the case is green laquered with the red sealent.
Both types of Russian are headstamped 3 for factory and
dated 97. Did the factory start leaving out some steps to
speed up production before imports are cutoff? Has
anyone else seen this type of 5.45? I havent fired any of it yet. Thank
- Maybe, could be a way of showing the US that it isnt Milspec thus,"sporting ammo". ntxt
