Ok, /k/ what the hell kinda clip is this?That's .30-06, fyi.
>>30151205
No, that's .303.
303 British charger clip
>>30151205
A stripper clip.
Looks a lot like the Lee-Enfield ones. Don't know why that would be loaded with 30-06.

HOLY FUCK ITS A MAGAZINE
CLIPS ARE FOR PISTOLS

Easy bud, we're all friends here.
Also all of these rounds Have this black stuff around the center. Wtf is up with that? Are they safe to shoot?
Ah ok. This is how I got it, preloaded. Idk anything about its origin. I just assumed it was .30-06. And it's definitely a clip, numbnuts.

Primer sealant. Plenty of modern ammunition manufacturers still seal the primers.
>>30151231
That's asphalt sealant. Pretty common on surplus ammo.
>>30151231
FN (Belgian) made in 1946. Neat old surplus ammo. It's safe to shoot but you could sell it to a collector.
>>30151205
Thats a british .303 charger. Also is there a difference in how the gun loads with my bullet arrangement vs. OP's?
>>30152587
Yeah. The way you do it is smoother, but you can't insert it upside down like the one in OP's. In fact in my No.4 Mk.I, if I stagger them I can't get them out of rimlock
>>30152659
Then your rifle is out of spec.
The Lee-Enfield is meant to be fed with staggered clips but should still reliably load no matter how the rounds are stacked in the clip.
Ok, so are the bullets .30-06 though or no.
>>30152767
No you dingus, they are british .303
>>30151274
Yeah I knew they were FN Herstal. I have some (3) that say 48 and 2 that say 67, I figured that meant manufactured in 1948 and 1967 respectively. Google told me M2 ball, which is what I was hoping (have a Garand). So, are they .30 or .303? That little thousandth of an inch makes all the difference huh?
Also where would I go about selling them to a collector?
>>30152820
It's more than that. .303 is actually a .311 diameter bullet, shorter case than 30-06 and most importantly .303 is a rimmed cartridge
