Sorry if this is beating a dead horse, but is the consensus now that all AYR is non-corrosive? I have a can of AYR 58 Lot 15 that I'm considering shooting over Christmas. Is there a definitive answer or the jury still out? If it's the latter, then I'm hoping this doesn't start an unnecessarily heated unnecessary discussion. Thank you and/or sorry in advance.

I had assumed so, until... I didn't clean after shooting it the one and only time and lo and behold rust had started a few days after (to be fair the shooting session was cut short due to it beginning to rain so it could have been that, though I did wipe off the water so who knows). I guess my take away was just treat as corrosive to be safe.

I have some AYR 56. AP ammo. Should I expect corrosion on the inside of the cases? I was told it is non corrosive.

NWM 6-60 7.62x63

Google is your friend. Ammo is from Denmark, berdan primed, non corrosive. Generally viewed as good ammo.
