shooterrex Posted June 9, 2021 Report Share Posted June 9, 2021 Does it still look good . Any corosion on the brass or bullets? I have had good luck w/ surplus ball ammo from the 70's & 80's. If it was stored in a dry place and not been exposed to real hot conditions it should be OK. YMMV Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sisco Posted July 1, 2021 Report Share Posted July 1, 2021 Take the head-stamp information on it and run a Google Search.you can find out a lot about individual ammo batches. I did this with some 1970’s Indian Army ammo and found that what I had was considered good quality, but that early 1980’s ammo from India had serious issues. Shot it all with no problems.
