Does anyone know why munitions filled with KSK had HVY stamped on their bodies???

Answers on a postcard please.

hvy SK

Needs a bit more research to make good reading but according to Explanatory List of Service Markings:

"HVY" will be stencilled on shell containing pure SK to denote they are heavy as compared with service SK shell.


Doesn't refer specifically to KSK
