.308 ammo ?'s

dgac
I got some ammo in the reloading room in .308 There are 3 different types of tips on them. I have some incendiary rounds but not sure on the others. They are green but not like the "flat" US military paint. It is shinny. Also have some two tones stuff too. They are red tip with a ring of blue underneath the red. This paint too is shinny. They ammo is remanufactured so I'm assuming headstamp wont help. any ideas what they are? I'm thinking the green are just tracers and the red/blue are incendiary tracers?
