Hi. I have a 4.5 inch case and noticed it's got some sort of resadue on the neck, upon inspection it says reject on it. does this mean the case didn't pass an inspection or something ?

Cheers
 
Hi, sorry for the late photo. This is the best I got, it is upside down as the case has a projectile in and is heavy to move. But it's readable. image.jpg
 
Hi have a few questions to ask you

1 Looking at the photo it looks like a MK 8 Round

2 What colour is the Shell and does it have marking

3 What if any markings are on the base of the case
 
Hello. It is a mk 8 round and it's a white star illumination shell, I've taken pictures of the markings on the shell and the base has 4.514051-08 RLB 11/99 stamped on it.

Cheers
