. . .And thanks for noticing my can.
In addition to the M48 series, there are/were also cartridges using the full length 50 BMG case as well as a special short, belted case.
Interesting. I have not seen a wood bulletted drill round for the spotter before. What is the headstamp? Also, what is the headstamp of the sectioned round, is it US or British? The flash tube of the XL7E1 is of a different form. I will scan the drawing and post it later.
