Italian 25.4mm/1 inch

[earni74]

I have this Italian 25.4mm/1 inch L25 round with solid lead projectile, with a percussion primer, the projectile does not seem to me to be correct, the case has three equidistant stab crimps, all comments welcome

The solid shot looks like a training 1in aiming.

The case is similar to Italian 25mm Nordenfeld (25.25mm). The steel shell fitted with two bands is inserted in the case up to the upper band.

I don't know if Italian used your lead shot in this case (nothing in my archives).

Mike, i think that projectile is for the Fiat/Revelli necked case, my Italian case is the Nordenfeld type, its if the solid lead projectile is used in my case (I doubt it) the Italians made more noticeable projectiles than solid lead,thanks for the comments
