Another Odd Ball Ammo find

[buzzy]

I picked up a box of ammo on garand enblocs in original box at a gun show this morning.

The headstamp is OJP 59

I have never seen a enbloc like this one. Have any of you ever seen one like this or know any more about it.

I believe it to be German Mfg.

IMO, Austrian enbloc

Couldn't get a good picture of the label but here is what is on it:

S-Pabronen / GM1 7.62 1959

"OJP" Enblocks are made by Osterreichische Jagdpatronenfabrik located in Kramsach, Tirol, Austria if I'm not mistaken. Good find!

Ammo is Austrian and does not have that good of a reputation.
I gave about 100rds away amd most were duds.

I have no intention of shooting it! I collect old 30-06 ammo from the first two world wars. And odd ball stuff like that.

Found a box of '42 Remington M2 BALL, a box of Tracers from St Louis, and a nice box of 1933 M1 ball from Frankford Arsenal last weekend.

Trying to get one Red Striped (Reserve Ammo) box from each ordinance plant. So far I have seven and I believe there were 15 different plants.
