If you can't focus on the headstamp, can you spell out what it is, please?
 
It is Argentine 308. FLB, FMFLB Fábrica Militar 'Fray Luís Beltran'.

It's good ammo. A bit smokey and corrosive so clean the bore when you're done shooting.
Primers are sealed and crimped. If I remember the Argentineans would coat their rounds with a preservative. If you tumble the rounds for about 30 minutes, or clean each round with a rag and a little "Purple Power" degreaser they won't stick anymore.

I was searching FLD, too. Thanks, Coup. Argentine stuff should be good.
 
One more thing. This is THE AMMO that the Argentineans would have used in their FN-FAL's during the Falkland's War with the United Kingdom.

So are you blaming the ammo for them losing the war? :ROFLMAO: My bid just went down...
 
LOL.... ?. The Argentineans kind of lost their will to fight after their flagship, the battleship Belgrano was sunk by a British submarine.
