I’ve just picked up this sectioned ARWEN round of a UK dealers website, and I do not recognise the baton type.
The case appears to have been on a display board at some time.
The only marking visible is 89 on the case head, which I assume indicates 1989.
The propelling cartridge has three primer stakes, so it looks to be a correct modified case for ARWEN use. The headstamp of the propelling cartridge is MIDWAY 44 REM MAG
The propelling cartridge fits into the base of the baton in the same way that it fits into an ARWEN ‘tadpole’ baton, so it looks like the baton is an ARWEN variant, not just something that someone has put together.
Does anyone know what variant this is?
