    Unknown .303 milsurp ammo

    I came across some .303 ammo 10 or so years ago that was the absolute best i have ever seen. I have been unable to find out where it was manufactured nor have I been able to find anymore of it. The best i can remember it came in 50 rd. boxes marked 7.7x56R. The guy selling it told me he thought it was South African but was'nt sure. As I've long since been out of it I don't remember what the headstamp was. The primers looked to be the same size as large rifle. Anyone remember it? Seen any lately?

    It does sound like the South African milsurp. Haven't seen any lately aside from Spinecracker's find about a year ago. (It didn't last too long!)
