223 headstamps question ?????

bigdog1

Come across a few cases with a C J, and some others with DNL for a headstamp. Anybody have any idea what these are? Is it a US case or foreign??? BTW, I'm still looking for some later LC or TZZ cases for reloading.

Anyone know a website to find what the headstamps stand for.

Does LC stand for Lake City Arsenal?

LC is Lake City Arsenal. This is followed by 2 numbers which are the year of manufacture. Hope I ain't preachin' to the deacon here.

Some guys like a mag full of lead, I still prefer one round to the head.
