WCC 6073 lot number

Anyone know when WCC6073 7.62mm M80 lot was made. 5rd clips in a 420rd can.

Western Cartridge Co. was given a contract for M80 (7.62 Ball) in 1960, starting with lot WCC6000. Without an actual copy of SB9-AMM4 for that time period, my best guess is your lot number falls within the 1960-1962 time frame, based on the quantity of M80 produced during the Vietnam War. Hope this helps.

Excellent and thank you much.  I have 4 of them just alike and they were loose packed with WRA69, RA70 ammo.  Good ammo and good cans too….:)
