Hey guys, can you help me identify some 7.62x51 I stumbled across? It's in a plain white box, labeled ".308" and the headstamp ready "7.62" and "H1." Any idea what this is? My concerns are:
#1, is it safe to shoot?
#2, will it function in my M-14
#3, is it reloadable?
I found this thread on EOTAC which was posted back in 2004. The pictures posted by suasponte is exactly what I have.

Thanks guys!
I think it's either Port, or Singapore.
Found this online, from a GB ad. It matches the labeling on the picture you referenced in that other thread.
