I have about 20 some cases marked "IK" "30.06", with central flash hole, red primer sealer and faint annealing mark. Looking on the International Ammunition site https://cartridgecollectors.org/?page=headstampcodes shows factory
Igman Zavod, Konjic, Yugoslavia as manufacture. Anyone familiar with them? They check as nearly sized but a few thousands short of minimum case length. I would like to reload these for informal shooting with my M1 Garand.

The Yugo cases are OK, but quality is not up to USGI or Greek HXP. If they were free or cheap I would go ahead and use them.

Thanks Outpost75, I will check for weight and load them.

"a few thousandths" will stretch, so load 'em and shoot 'em.
