[QUOTE="Kevin Thomas, post: 793074, member: 15748"] Correct on the LR designation; the brass was bound for M118LR ammunition, loaded with the 175 SMK. The primer will be a #43, or their equivalent of a Match primer. Normal primer used in LC 7.62 ammo is the standard #34 primer. Cases with the asphalt sealant is supposed to be loaded within 30 days of its application, or have the sealant removed before sealing if its been over that time period. I always used a standard bore brush to remove this. I'd be careful about any sort of solvent for fear of contaminating the primer. Should be good stuff, but it does make me wonder why it was sold as surplus. [/QUOTE]
