    usually on surplus ammo the numbers and letters represent a year of production and factory code

    It definitely is NATO ammo as it's about 2mm taller than my Super X .308win soft point

    As I understand CJ means Norinco and the 93,95,96 etc is the year it was manufactured IIRC

    Works pretty well in my .308's, especially compared to pricier options. Hard to beat for blasting away.

    Not about Norinco 308 ammo, but I use Hirtenberger 7.62x51 Austria surplus ammo. Its brass cased and not that more expansive than Norinco's one.

    Hirtenberger is $599.00 for 720rds which makes it $0.83ea. If so that's a far ways from $0.37 ea.
    Of course there is a substantial discount sale on it at the moment.
    Space for rent.
