Boys Practice Mk 2

Hi,

I thought I would share some Boys photos with everyone. I got these 2 fired PII cases a few months ago now, and two fired projectiles arrived from Leeski this morning, to my surprise after weighting them they seems to be a perfect match! Both projectiles seems to be just under the 425-grain weight of the typical Practice Mark 2 (Aluminium cored).

Regards
Michael

Nice to have fired projs in such good condition.

The cases should have a blue lacquered band around them just above the rim.
