I will check my drawings, I probably have one of the BIz but am not sure.

If I have I will post it.

I have had a look and regret I do not have a drawing of the B Mark I. I do have a drawing of the B.I bullet envelope showing the modification to the internal nose shape and even a drawing of the experimental .5 Vickers explosive bullet, but no B.I.
AP, yes, tracer and ball, yes. Even the phosphorous incendiary, but not what you want. Sorry.

It was however virtually just an enlarged .303 B Mark VII.
