Any way to ballpark a year on this Warmoth neck?

Based on the logo style it's pre-2010.

"Warmoth Radius" is what they used to call/mark their compound radius fretboards; I'm not sure when they stopped calling it/stamping it on the heel

Not having a side adjust mechanism is interesting, that could be a clue too as I'm not sure when they started using them
 
It's got the square fretboard, which implies it's fairly early on. 20'th century 4 sura.

Hard to say without more pics, and even then, it could still be just an approximation. Is it a tiltback? Is it left-handed? Is it a gibson/baritone conversion neck? Is the bottom adjustment nut hex or a Phillips? There are several reasons it may or may not have a side-adjust and would have a square fretboard instead of a rounded one. More info needed.

I thought the Turtle stamp would've been sideways if this truly was from the '90s or early '00s.

Right handed. Not tilt back. Not hex nut, IIRC it is not philips either, rather I used a flat head screwdriver to adjust. I noticed the Warmoth font size on the stamp is different than currently.
 
In that case, especially with the slotted nut, I'd concur that it's unlikely to be any more recent than the early '00s.
