I'm trying to identify some ammunition. Yes, I 've been to the headstamp page, and it got me 'stadium' butnot on the 'ballfield'. So, I'm enlisting your help. I'm trying to positively identify a cartridge that reads: RORG 16 Is it Royal Ordance Factory Radway Green .223? or 5.56? And what does the 16 mean? Thanks in advance.

Not trying to be a smart ass but does it look like this?

If so it's not 16 but 91.

Royal Ordinance Radway Green 5.56 manufactured in 91 loaded with a 63 grain bullet if I remember correctly.

That's IT!!! No offense taken! Thank you very much. I no longer have an AR chambered for 5.56, so this will have to go as well. I'm not going to ream my .223 chamber to fit.

Circled cross is NATO. NATO = 5.56

For future reference
