Given some 25-06 Nosler ammunition
« on: September 04, 2014, 08:07:57 PM »
I was presented with 57 Nosler rounds in which I have no need for. As the labeling on the plastic holder states the following.
 
25-06
Nosler Balco
1MR4831
3400
Casings shows stamped DEN 42

Now I can guess the 3400 means fps, but no idea about 1MR4831.
There is also 20 rounds 25-06 117 grains factory primer in Rem FC casings. Can I assume these are reloads?  :dunno:

IMR4831 is the powder.
:fire.:

" In today's instant gratification society, more and more pressure revolves around success and the measurement of one's prowess as a hunter by inches on a score chart or field photos produced on social media. Don't fall into the trap. Hunting is-and always will be- about the hunt, the adventure, the views, and time spent with close friends and family. " Ryan Hatfield

I don't know what the "Balco" is. I guess it's the type of bullet, which obviously is made by Nosler, but I haven't heard of Balco.   :dunno:

The headstamp on the cases "DEN 42," my guess is that they are military 30/06 cases, probably made in Denver in 1942.
