I was really pleased with this H13 for a couple of reasons ,firstly I bought it because it was for 12 bore ,generally used by the RAF to train gunners, and apart from a little woodworm its in good condition with all its original labels, and secondly , as I only discovered when it arrived home , was NZ made filled by CAC, so I now have UK, Canadian , Australian, South African and New Zealand filled H13. I don't have a USA made one , but I think they used a different pattern. Have I missed out any wartime manufacturers of H13 boxes? Ah , yes, Indian, anyone got a spare Indian H13? Any more?? Also does any one have a picture of the 12 Bore carton used by CAC, possibly the std trade pattern. No 6 shot.

Cheers

Gary
