I was wondering if this stuff is corrosive:
Hungarian "Etalon" 7.62x54R Item#A762x54RMatch
ETALON is an old European word for reference ammo. ETALON ammo is a top lot of ammunition where all parameters like gas pressure, accuracy, velocity and dimensions show the least tolerance fluctuation possible. The ammo is then marked as ETALON and used as reference lot to calibrate test barrels and ballistic test equipment which has to be done from time to time to compensate for wear. The ammo is kept by the producer, by the proof houses and by military customers to provide them for adjustment during production and acceptance tests. This ammo is considered always the top of the best, superior to sniper or match.
The ammo has been gathered from the factory and military test stations, repackaged in 20rd boxes/220rd sealed packs, and is now available for sale in the US. This ammo is 147grn FMJ, Steel cased, Berdan Primer.
Doesn't say anywhere in there...
Thanks
Shawn
