- I've got in my hand some cartridges that I'd like to identify. They're
- sort of different in that they're plastic and .308 caliber.
-
- They're blue, with a blue plastic bullet. The bullet seems to have a
- lot bearing surface and is made with the case (connected, not
- inserted). The powder is a small flake powder at about a 50%
- capacity. The base of the bullet is copper or a copper washed brass,
- and the headstamp is "DAG 7.62x51". The primer is nickel and is
- sealed with a green lacquer.
-
- I'm hoping that someone out there will have an idea just what this is,
- and what it might have been designed for...
