The LC64 headstamp refers to ammunition manufactured by the Lake City Army Ammunition Plant in 1964. This facility has been a key supplier of small arms ammunition for the U.S. military, producing various calibers, including the widely used 5.56x45mm NATO and 7.62x51mm NATO cartridges. The "LC" stands for Lake City, while "64" indicates the year of production. Collectors and enthusiasts often seek out this headstamp for its historical significance and quality.

Order from them, and you know you're getting reloads on once fired brass.
