BT or IBT=Maker ?
Hi "Q" I am fairly sure that BT is a makers monogram as I have seen a fair few 6 and 17 Pounder APDS rounds stamped up with BT or IBT as you state-sorry but can offer no more than that.

Thanks for the reply Chris, I'm not sure its a markers monogram (but i'd be happy to be proved wrong).
In the instance of the 6 PR APDS the 'I' is the mark of shot and the 'T' signifies tracer.
