556 ammo, what is it.
Years ago I bought a case of what was supposed to be tracers.
I was told that they have been "damaged"
Basically none of them trace out of the gun, no matter what size barrel.
What they DO do is.... after fireing they won't do a thing until they hit something, then they trace. I have caused a handful of fires because of these sticking in the ground and then shooting fire from the hole.
Today I noticed that the tops are attracted to a magnet.
No idea of bullet weight.
The shells are basic looking (no heat marks at the neck), the primer is set in with 3 stake marks and is waterproof with red sealer.
The headstamp is HP 5.56 88
The bullets are painted red at the tip.
I have reciently heard of "no-show" tracers....
