Stamped primers?

[Camo]

Probably, but in my time I've fired a LOT of ammo in various calibers from several manufacturers, and NONE of them ever had primer markings. Is that some sort of new thing these days with ammo producers, or is the 'primer marking' thing being test marketed for future acceptance by the peasants?

No these are older rounds. Probably 40-50 years out.

Mag tech almost always marks their primers. I’ve had some others that do. But whatever, it’s newsom marking primers to get us

Thanks for the replies, I learned something.

I went ahead and pulled them down to recover the lead and scrap the brass.

Brass and steel cases that are destined for the scrap bin can be used to punch holes in paper.
Like gasket material.

I use them often to make carb gaskets.

I shot some pistol ammo years ago that had a triangle shaped mark on the primers and I believe it was Magtech.
