20x139 id

Hi to all,
looking for a positive id for this Swiss 20x139mm,as you can see the projectiles drive band (which is still firmly crimped into the case) is totally wrong for what you usually find in these rounds,the colour of the projectile is most likely wrong as it looks like a re paint,but is marked with a 'diamond' and 24.......as steel cased 20x139FMK rounds have now come to light(previously only thought to be brass cases) I did wonder if this could be one of these but the rim seems to be too thick for these rounds to me?


Cheers
Tony
