During the Vietnam War, "sixty cans" (M60 machine gun ammunition cans) came 200 rds per can; in two bandoleers, each one hundred round bandoleer was in a OD colored cloth bag which had OD cloth handles. The cloth bags were always discarded (quickly). "Sixty cans" were easily identified, as they were narrow, not wide metal cans, like the .50 caliber ammo cans (called "fifty cans"). Each 5th round was a tracer, same with the fifty ammo. Tracers were painted with orange tips on the bullets (they might have been meant to be red, but they appeared to be orange in color).
