I'm nearly 100% positive that it is repackaged Norinco red box ammo. Like you said, factory #311, 2023 production year. The price with an HST comes to about 72c/rd which is much too much for rather crappy ammo (a steel jacket&case). They added the cost of a plastic container? Personally, I don't need a plastic ammo container.

Uhhhh..... Same headstamp as my norinco non corrosive.
I remember one retailer had an auction going with many Norinco Red boxes listed as "box damaged“ or "water damaged box" late last year.
and another retailer listed Norinco Red boxes on their website as "water damaged box" for slightly reduced price.
and who is Scropio?

Just another Czechia ammo company. There 9mm is decent stuff nothing I'd say to be highly reliable maybe 2-5 duds in a 1000 rounds. But this headstamp business is fishy. Probably got there casing machines from China
If they are indeed Norinco (think 100% they are) then NO. Steel jacketed bullets with a small steel core.
A Company that buys 'damaged' goods, & re-packs/distributes them in a new shiny package..~
2 to 5 duds a thousand is decent stuff? That is absolute garbage to me...Just another Czechia ammo company. There 9mm is decent stuff nothing I'd say to be highly reliable maybe 2-5 duds in a 1000 rounds. But this headstamp business is fishy. Probably got there casing machines from China
And it's mildly corrosive too. This and the Yugo stuff Bullseyes North is selling are both marketed as non-corrosive when, if you look into it, it is. Better off just getting the cheapest crap and call it a day for plinking ammo. Some companies are just capitalizing on a post Russia import-ban ammo scene in Canada with desperate shooters. Now the question is if it's the suppliers tricking the businesses into buying their stock or the businesses selling it off, fully knowing what it is...
Yep, seems like a lot of the retailers on this site and others just want to con us with this type of garbage…
It was just $259/500 from Tenda in July 2024…
