Just recieved a case of Lake City .30-06 from the Civillian Marksmanship Program. As their widely circulated advertising states, this is .30 cal U.S. Army surplus delinked and repacked in 20 rd boxes, 12 boxes to a .30 cal ammo can x 4 cans.
My ammo has some traces of tarnish and few minor nicks on some rounds where links meshed with the brass. Otherwise, I find the ammo reliable and safe to use. So far I found mainly LC 68 and one LC 69 orange tipped.
Order online at the cmp website. You need to be a member of a CMP affiliated club to be able to participate with their program. Contact their Anniston, Alabama facility (CMP South - whom has the inventory) to get your online account set up.
Ammo is bright overall. And, yes, a magnet does stick to the copper clad bullet!
