.303 No idea

Morning,

Does any body know what this headstamp means, it's got a red primer which I assume to be Tracer?

K 49 4 43.

It's a bit rough but I assume Kynoch, 1949, ??????

I'm trying to collect and display every year of manufacture, either until 1974 being the last RG round or for 100 years as I just bought some 2002 stuff.

Cheers.

Rich.
 
im sure red around the primer indicates tracer,theres a few 303 collectors and shooters on here who should be able to confirm the rest of the markings for you
 
.303 tracer

Can we have a photo of the headstamp please.

Are you sure it is not K49 G3z or similar?

BTW, you will not be able to get a date of every year of manufacture, as from 1891 to 1907 British SAA was undated.

Regards
TonyE

P.S. What is the headstamp on th 2002 ammo please?
