Not sure if it counts for 20x110 as well, but there were 20x102's HEI with the olive drab/red paint scheme.
As far as i found out, it just was an older paintscheme for hei (Page from TM 9-1901-1 aka TO 11A-1-39 - Ammunition for Aircraft Guns (Dec. 1959))

That's what I had been looking for and just for the life of me couldn't find it. I knew it was an approved paint scheme.

Thanks for the help,

Joe
