Default Anyone know what this belt is??

I was at a local shop and purchased a few things I know the owner well and he gave me this belt the caliber is 5.56x45 they appear to be unfirable and some sort of pressure operated. The belt is 85 long. He told me it was to test the cycling of a weapon, I assume the SAW m249 since its the only 5.56x45 belt fed gun I know of. Any info would be greatly appreciated.

Yeah,

Looks like training rounds and the links are much like the M60 but you said there 223 so they have to be for the SAW 249... It's been a while...
