Please take your lead from this post - this is not an "ammo porn" thread, and if it turns into one it's getting locked. Please post pics of packaging, the rounds themselves, headstamps, and any tech data from the packaging - Eric802
I see pictures threads for many things, but none for ammo. I am actually interested to see examples of what various ammo looks like right out of the box. As with other picture threads, lets keep the majority of the posts to actual pictures and not discussions. I will start this off with: Hornady - 223 REM - 75 gr TAP FPD #80268 Stats From Label: Muzzle Velocity 2790 fps 100 yds +1.9", 200 yds 0.0", 300 yds -8.3", 400 yds -24.1", 500 yds -49.3" 1-9" Twist or Faster MADE IN THE USA http://i1353.photobucket.com/albums/q678/techjedi/Ammo/Hornady223REMTAP_80268_Full_zps6efd60ee.jpg http://i1353.photobucket.com/albums/q678/techjedi/Ammo/Hornady223REMTAP_80268_CloseTip_zpse8d33248.jpg http://i1353.photobucket.com/albums/q678/techjedi/Ammo/Hornady223REMTAP_80268_CloseFrontBack_zpscbbb2b9a.jpg Hope you enjoy and post some more! |

Here's a pic of Win. ZQ3314 with a similar crimp

Admit nothing, deny everything, make counter-accusations
Fiocchi 40 gr. V-Max. This stuff is loaded pretty hot. They claim 3660 fps and I don't doubt it.
Fiocchi 50 gr. A-Max. Box says V-Max, but obviously they are A-Max bullets. 
HXP M2... good stuff right there

One of my more interesting finds was a few years ago at Cabelas:
Hornady 5.56 60gr SP W/C #80285 50rds/box Stats from the box: 2800fps 100yds +2.4" 200yds 0.0" 300yds -10.0" 
Under the label shown was antoher label, it was the same except instead of 'LAW ENFORCEMENT' it said 'TAP KHP', which I found out was for Kansas Highway Patrol.
