Go back a couple weeks and you'll find a thread on the same subject.

We can get some Singapore from Kiesler's for $25-200 I think.

Century had some for about $21 per 160 a short while ago. This was 4 rd links in a fairly nice ammo can ($50 minimum). I got a few thousand rounds (mostly gone now), with about 1000 of the 1984 batch left. I have heard that some had problems with 1984 RG, yet so far mine has been perfect. Does anyone know why/how some of the 1984 was flawed. Were some cases exposed, or quality control being bad? So far, I cannot complain, other than being somewhat dirty.

Some tests show pressure to be low, but velocity pretty good. I can live with these facts. I will buy more.

edit-
altho I will buy more, if the price is right, I have found the Hirtenburger and DAG to be more desirable, if Hirt is the same price, consider it as it is clean. Bill says it is around $150/k, a good price.

www.gunsnammo.com has it in the desirable boxes, ( the tins are said to be less accurate FWIW, though none were recommended here).
I believe 139.99/K

Ohhhh!- Their website shows the stuff in a can marked "8 CNRS", probably the plastic trays... still a good deal, but I would call if expecting the 20 round boxes... I bet it's good ammo just the same...

I have shot RG from both the 20 round boxes and the 400 round cans and trays. I can't tell any difference. I have some made the same year packed both ways.

TerryB · September 10, 2001, 06:58

What does the headstamp of Radway Green look like?

kman · September 10, 2001, 09:28

I live 5 minutes from Classic Arms and bought 500 rds of the Royal Ordnance, It is a little tarnished (duh) but shoots very nice. Not a stitch of problems....very consistent on loads. I will buy again.

**BUFF** · September 10, 2001, 15:24

Headstamp has a two digit date, the letters " RG " and the cross-in-circle NATO mark. Green primer sealant, if I remember.
