    M118 special ball (brown box) is a down graded version of M118 Match (white box). the accuracy of M118 Match began to fall off during the '70's so in the early '80's LCAAP developed a new 7.62mm match round to replace it which became known as XM852 Match resulting in the M118 being down graded in the mid '80's.
