Headstamp Identification

[slushee]

Looking at a .223 rem round with a headstamp:

SB MC 223

Looks to be a 55 grain FMJ round.

Any info would be appreciated. I found a site that says SB could refer to Serbian, but I have yet to find a listing for SB MC.

Thanks in advance.

SB is most likely S&B for Sellier & Bellot, their factory is in Vlasim, Prague, Czech Republic.

The MC usually indicates a metal cased bullet.
