SWISS 5,6 mm 591-1050 (50 in a white light carton box).

Anybody have some informations for this ammo. Some guys tell they are barrel burner.

Silver color bullets, ammo on a grey plastic stripper clip.

On the case base, it's a "T" dated 89.

It is Ruag GP90 ammo. From my reading, the 591 indicates live ammo and the 1050 is for ball. Tracer was 591-1055. I think it is early production ammo with a nickel alloy jacket that proved to be hard on barrels. Later production lots used a tombac jacket.
