Ive scene them years ago, they're .308 blanks for a machine gun. I first saw them in 61/62 at a military show near our home in Fort Worth, they did a simulated attack on a sand bag bunker using the M14 rifle, afterwards all us kids ran over there and picked up a bunch of the expended blanks. They had also fired a bazooka with no explosive in the warhead at it and I found the rocket motor . I had to stand guard over it till it cooled down enough for me to take home. Fo several years after I thought the .308 was actually shaped like the ones in the picture.

The ammo shown was belted for a 30 or 50 cal machine gun. M14's used mags. The M60 used 308's belted ammo.

You got it.
After working on a Marine Base, for nearly 25 years, you would think
that I'd get it, right off. I can see the (blank cartridge tips).
They might look harmless, but the Marines would often toss
unused or misfired cartridge blanks into the bushes after their
training day. (Then along comes a brush fire). The blanks
and live unexpended rounds come alive. I've had to pick several
bits of brass out of my lower legs while fighting brush fires on base.
(safety glasses are essential, here).
The cartridge (links) took my eye off of the prize.
