Who can identify this primer and filling factory on a 13Pr 9Cwt case.
I have not seen C.H over B.T before.

Hello,
To add at your post, the position of the stamping CH/BT is diverse in the headstamp.
1)At 2 or 3 o'clock, the most common in my observations.
2)At 9 o'clock as your.
3) At 12 o'clock.
I have also the mark C/BT very similar. I don't know if it is the same manufacturer. 4)
Regards,
