Ooh thats different, I looked at the first picture and almost expected it to be a "rimfire" cartridge.
Never seen one of these before-rare ? actually knowing you probably more like "rocking horse poo" !
Thanks for showing us Dave.
 
Thanks Chris, definitely NOT a rim fire.
They're quite hard to find over here. I'm sure the guys in the US have loads of these they can show.
