Just purchased a M82A1 Barrett. It came with some ammo. I am trying to find out about what I have. Whether or not to shoot it. A kaboom with this will,not be good. Looking at the headstamps.(middle picture) The first 3 are Lake City? The number 3 made in 51? The 4th Israel? The rest not so much of a clue in the rest of the pictures.. As for the one without any marking is the mystery round I guess.
Any help would be greatly appreciated
Side note. I have a few that the bullet is not secure. It spins in the cartridge case. Wonder if those should be not used. I do not reload for 50BMG. Much less have a puller that big. I have two that have primer strikes and need to figure that out. I have seen what a round can do to a hand.
