Can you help me identify this 8mm ammo?

[oconeedan]

I bought around 150 rounds of this ammo, not knowing exactly what it is. I have not shot it yet, so I can't say if it is boxer primed or berdan.
It is good looking brass cased, and has pointed sp ammo. So it is doubtful that it is surplus. Very clean and new looking took not tarnished.
Thanks in advance, Dan

I'm guessing Russian surplus

What kind of packaging did it come in?
I would almost guess Iraqi or some other Persian.

Is it .318 or .323 in diameter?

Is it .318 or .323 in diameter?

Excellent question.
If it is truly "JS" it should be .323.

It is .323. It is very nice quality looking ammo, pointed soft point, and looks new like something you would pull out of a new box of modern ammo. No stains, etc.
It came on stripper clips, that will not fit in my FN49.
I may pull one, weigh the bullet, see the primer, but I'd rather ID it without pulling it apart, would rather shoot it.
Thanks for the replies so far.

I have spent some time trying to find that same headstamp but I have come up with nothing. Is boxer or berdan primed?

I think its gonna be Igman made in Bosnia and Herzegovina
Good luck ...I think its good stuff but I've been wrong before

I'm going to vote igman as well. I think I have some I can check somewhere.

Thanks for the replies. I may pull one just to see, if I do I'll post.
