Selling 200 rounds of .30-06 blacktip ammunition, ammo container included.

PLEASE NOTE**

There may be a crusty cartridge here and there amongst these 200 rounds, but overall these cartridges appear to be in good condition for their age. I have fired a few from the lot these came from and all went *bang* as expected. Sold as is.

Are they really armor piercing or did someone just paint the tips?

Are they really armor piercing or did someone just paint the tips?

Yes, they are real. The majority of the rounds in the can are from a later bulk lot of FN black tip ammunition. They vary in the last digit of the head stamp but at a glance generally consist of FN 66 and FN 68. Additionally there are a few rounds here and there that are from Saint Louis Ordinance Plant, and are headstamped SL 43.

I did not include photos of the headstamps in the original post because it is difficult to get a good photo with a phone, and I did not include a photo of the original box because I am keeping some of these for myself and the original boxes are not for sale.
