  1. Default 8mm German Mauser ammo box id please:

    Rounds in both boxes appear to be ball with green primer sealant, brass cased, no tip paint. Wondering if 'red' overstamp means tracer? Thanks, Don

    I had a case of circa 1937 stuff. Salvaged for bullets only. Case had a leak and water got in.
