2pdr H.V. W.P I.T/N

[bacarnal]

Had a question about this round. Had it for a while but doesn't fit, but before it leaves, does the W.P. mean White Phosphorous? I'm not that familiar with the Brit rounds. I assume it does but I want to be certain, at least to settle my own curiosity. Cheers, Bruce.

The paint markings indicate a practice round. WP might be 'Weighted Practice'?.

Hi Bruce,
As Kahu1 has mentioned black with yellow stripe was a British practice designation.
Please have a look at the following link for lots more 2pr info.
Best Weasel.

Thanks all for the info. Weasel, I actually used the search function tinysmile_twink_t and looked at that link and me, with my literal mind, didn't see the variations on page 3. Thanks again, Bruce.
