    Corrosive primer in 30-06 military?

    When did the military stop using corrosive primers in 30-06 ammo? Thanks

    There is no fixed date for all types of ammunition. As a general rule - early 1950s. There are charts available on several of the shooting forums,. To get an exact date for each type, you will need the lot number of your ammunition.

      As another general rule...

      any U.S. military ammunition dated 1953 and later can be considered to be non-corrosive.
