When did British loading facilities stop stamping the cartridge load type on the 30x111B Aden belts? (eg. PRAC 4Z).
I have a fired case with the following stampings.(GD = Glascoed,Wales). I realise that 1950's loads did not have the load types on the belt.
Groove is stamped: J. 30.MM.RG.01
Belt is stamped: 01 GD 006
Is the 30mm Aden HV still loaded and made in UK? Is my case Lot 6 loaded 2001 (usually the date is as the end).
Or is it lot 1 from 2006. Maybe old cases only loaded when needed?
