I just picked up three full tins of these .303 H Mk. 1Z (Canadian pattern), nice additions to the collection. Labels could be nicer but I expect they are fairly scarce by now. All dated 1942
The best set of books I have found for individual pattern details are the set of "Identification Manuals on the .303 British Service Cartridge" by B.A. Temple, there are 5 in the set and they give an in depth description and drawing or each Mark/Type/Pattern of rounds.
You will find a detailed description of this Grenade Cartridge in Barry's book No. 2- Blank Ammunition, on Page 55. The small primer is one of the identifying points.
