Just acquired this large British shell nose cone. Normally you’d find a separate nose cone and fuze like this on a shrapnel shell, but this has an impact fuze as you would find on an HE shell. However, HE shells don’t usually have a separate nose cone.
So I was wondering if this is from a large chemical / gas shell where only a bursting charge is required to empty out the contents? If so, which calibre?
