Has anyone ever heard of a 62gr FMJBTSC W/O cannalure? "Lake City M855 projectiles" I am about to find out for sure, once I get them here soon.

Dont know what the SC stands for but yes they are M855 either surplus or pulled projectiles from current Mil. issue bullets.

Full Metal Jacket Boat Tail Steel Core with no Cannalure, these are not pulled, these are brand new never loaded.

I shoot my 62gr bullets over 25gr of H335 w/#41 primers @ 2.260 OAL with pretty good luck.

If they dont have a cannalure....It'd be my suspicion that those are NOT LC M855 bullets

From what I was told on the low down, these are Lake City Bullets, like I said, wait and see...

They are probably new manufactured and are of foriegn origin.

How are you even going to know if they are or not when you get them?? Most SS109 type bullets all LOOK the same....especially if those dont even have a cannulure, how are you going to verify if they are or not?

Never heard of them.

I have IMI brand 62 gr. fmjbt with no cannelure and steel core insert that I purchased back in the late 90's.
