Anyone open 800rd tuna cans of Norinco .223 ammo?

I'm asking because on the various sponsor websites it showing ammo in brighg yellow boxes and about 20rds per box. I will do a search. Its a great deal at that price. If its rainey day ammo and won't be shot for a while its easier to just keep it stored in the tuna cans. More compact than moving it all to metal ammo cans
 
In the spam cans it is packed in paper.

The bright yellow boxed ammo is the Norinco stuff, it doesn't come in the spam cans though, it comes in wooden crates.
 
if you scroll back I took a bunch of pics of me opening the can, and how it was packed, and the head stamp and all that.

What's the headstamp on the spam can stuff, Neo?

The headstamp is CJ 95. Adding to the apparent confusion in all this is that some are saying that some crates contain CJ 93. Don't know that it makes any difference, but I've never shot any of the 93 stuff. I did work through a case of the 94 ammo several years ago, and do know that the brass in that stuff frequently showed off-centre flash holes. So far, I've yet to see that in the 95 ammo.

The yellow box stuff I just got from CanAm is CJ 93. Shot 60 rounds of it today with no issues.

I did have a crate of white box Chinese .223 headstamped CJ 95 that I got from Frontier last year that gave me nothing but problems. Blown and flattened primers and bent rims in the same box as rounds which wouldn't cycle the action.
