Welcome to the Bunker!

DAG is German - made by Dynamit Nobel A.G. and is good stuff.

The circle with the cross means it is a NATO spec round.

Some folks tumble them clean with no ill effects. I've taken a green scrub pad and cleaned corrosion off brass.

I use steel wool. Wipe off with cloth to remove any wool left behind. Never had any problem.

Thank ypu Sanders! Well, I guess I could put the tumbler in the barn for some margin of safety. The bullet itself is a Noosler style - very pointy and I am almost positive it is stainless. I might cut one through with a hacksaw, but I'll bet it is solid.

This guy I work with likes to pick up brass and he ran across one didn't recognize. I am thinking it will be easy for this crowd to tell me what it is:

FC at the top (so I am thinking federal)

2 at the nine o'clock

4 at the 3 o'clock

13 at the bottom.

Size is about 30.

Thanks guys.
