.308 Ammo
Your ammo with the RG headstamp is Radway Green. It is British. There should be a circle with a cross inside it to designate it as NATO standard.
The L2A2 is the type designation, much like US M-118, etc. It should be all right for military 7.62 firearms.
What is the headstamp on a cartridge from Lot #2?

Sorry for the delay. I have a heck of a time getting on the forums.
The headstamp is:
T Z
80
I don't believe that I have ever fired any of this ammo.

Your second lot, TZ 80, is Israeli military surplus. A few lots from 1980 have been bad, blown cases, etc. I would just pull the bullets from that stuff and trash the rest. Some of it is good, some bad, but why take the chance.
