    It could be the photo, but the case necks almost look like a lacquered steel composition, Wolf production .30-06?

    Ammo sources in hotspots can be hard to trace, in Afghanistan we would recover everything from 1979 vintage Sovieticon cases to one year old S&B, and stuff in between.

    They could also just be scrubby ratty cartridges that have been around a while...

    Quite possible, hard to glean a lot from that photo conclusively.
