6 inch Practice Projectile

This 6" Practice Projectile followed me home to day. Not really my thing, but may be of interest to some. Real heavy.

Printed on shell: 6" G SHOT Mk 13B

REP 15 GPN 963

Stamped on base: 3/57 RL LOT 5 - C 6" G Mk 13 B P

Very nice, Andy.

We do not see many good 6" pojectiles over here; probably too heavy for most folks.

Roger.
 
We see quite a few of these here in Australia, fired ones lose their drive bands, good to see the drive band profile in the pics, thanks for showing.
