Surplus ammo info needed - corrosive?

[ian_in_vic]

As the title suggests, I found some .303 bandoliers I've had in the basement for 10 or 15 years. They are marked RG (Radway?) 7 and 50. I'm guessing Radway Green Mark 7 Ball 1950. Is this corrosive - just so I'm more carefull than usual if it is.

I'd say treat all milsurp ammo like it's corrosive. My guess would be a yes anyways.

Lucky bastard with your Brit surplus .303.

If Mk7 rather than 7Z it is corrosive with Cordite propellant.
