.223 manufacturer

[bclinehand]

Just bought some bulk .223 ball with the headstamp c j 94 .......anybody know who made it and how it performs?

That will be Norinco, and it will run fine, perhaps a bit hot. It's 55gr and the brass is reloadable.

Thank you sir......figured it was norc. Hot is Ok I like the fireball

Get a 11.5 inch upper and you'll strap weiner holders to it at lunch time. Big honkin gas ball flame throwing zombie smoking fun for all ages. Kind of stinks though.

I fired some Norinco out of a Ruger Mini 14, and it looked like a flaming basket ball on the end of the gun!
Me likes!
