917601 Posted November 24, 2019 Share #1 Posted November 24, 2019 I was reading that the US stopped production of its .30 M2 ( 30.06) AP in 1954. They contracted Raufoss ( headstamp "AYR") out of Norway to carry on our AP requirements. Can anyone verify this information? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
917601 Posted November 24, 2019 Author Share #2 Posted November 24, 2019 A can of TW purchased a long time ago from the CMP, all are 1954 headstamped. My AYR is all 1955, and Berdan primed, I found out the hard way, I broke the primer pin on my reloading die. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
