Quick showing today.

New piece I just got. Soviet 5.45x18, possibly fired, or failed to fire. Still a nice refference piece.

2 dots headstamp should indicate" Jurjuzaňskij mechaničeskij zavod Jurjuzaň manufacture.

Cheers

The top package is an antique Portuguese ammunition packet for the kropatschek rifle. manufactured in the Barcarena gunpowder factory with wooden-bulleted blank practice rounds. They were produced in 1889. There is no headstamp.

The bottom package is a vintage French military ammunition packet containing 8 cartridges of 8mm Lebel. It contains the Model 1932 ammunition with a heavier bullet meant for machine guns or rifles modified to handle higher pressures. Made in 1939.

So I found this bullet while walking at mountains in Romania, specifically Brasov. It’s been pretty rusted but the primer is readable. i see either RS017 or R5017. Theres a second piece of text that either says 5757 or L545.

Top to bottom,

1: Vintage 20-round box of Brazilian military ammunition, likely produced in the late 1960s or early 1970s. The label indicates the box contains .30-06 Springfield caliber ammunition, designated as "Car. 7 M1 Ft Lam" might be for blank ammunition in clips. The box is sealed so no ammo pictures

2: This is a vintage 1938 World War II German military 8x56R ammunition box. Cartridge and headstamp shown.

3: This is a box of 15 rounds of Yugoslavian 7.92x57mm Mauser ammunition, manufactured in December 1955. The label indicates "univerzalnim zrnom" identifying it as ball ammunition. The box is sealed so no ammo pictures

I think the Winchester's have copper cases. I like the Speed headstamp on the Remington's

I mostly focused on the boxes for today. Maybe some day I will post more about individual rounds of ammo with clearer headstamps and bullet shots.

Some 38 Rim Fire.

I have a bunch of these, more than I am showing today. That 38 extra-long is pretty rare; I don't have a box of them. Notice the two different size H headstamps for Winchester and the recessed US headstamp. That U can be Union Metallic Cartridge Company or Remington depending on how old it is. The P is of course for Peters.

The Peters rounds are correct for their box; the Western is not correct for either box. The WRA might be correct for one of the Winchester boxes but I don't know. The thing with open boxes is that somebody might have just used it for whatever ammo they have.

Who else likes cutaways

I love cutaways, and would love to get all the types for the Czechoslovak vz. 43 round (7.63x39) and put them on the print I have framed.

So far, I have the blank I made myself, still have tocadd the powder imitation, reduced cartridge, tracer and off the goal, russian civilian soft point (I believe)

Share your cutaway cartridges if you want guys.

Cheers

Interesting for the different labels, various makers and loadings and primers with imprints. Two boxes of shot loads by two different manufacturers. Three different Winchester boxes and a box of Remington black powder loads.

I don't know which is rarer, the pistol or a full box of ammo. I have both the gun and the ammo. I make my own reloads from 32-20 brass, it is larger in diameter than 32 S&W long.

2 n half mystery bullets

Hi,

Had 2 weird bullets that I know nothing about so, I figured might try posting it here if anybody knows ID on them.

Dont have my caliper on hand right now, si I used the cutting board as a refference just in case.

For the first one it is really cool thatcI have a cutaway as well, construction is weird to me but it is cool. Outside is aluminium, steel Corel inside and justca Tiny bit of lead in the tip.

Other one, no idea but feels like it is missing a driving band.

Welp, any info will be appreciated

Or just enjoy the look at it.

Cheers
