Title: Hevi-13 lot numbers
Post by: jtg88 on March 21, 2011, 04:49:32 PM
I was looking at the two boxes of Hevi 3.5-2.25-7s I've got and noticed the lot number was #300325 on both boxes.  How can you tell if these are this years or last years shells based on lot number?

NOT SURE MINE ARE  ALL 16383 43027
That sounds like the bar code numbers.  The lot # is underneath the top flap.
