Still plugging away on the medium caliber, only a couple hundred left. Hopefully I haven't asked about this one before. Who makes it, and what is the significance of the red number 45/46 on the ogive? Thanks.

This are two swedish 20x110 HS404.
The right one is reloaded by 357 (SAMMANSÄTTNINGSVERKSTAD GÄLLÖ) in 1964. The First Charge was made at 125 (LJUNGMANS VERKSTÄDER AB, MALMÖ) in 1963.
The left one is made by 126 (KOCKUMS EMALJVERK RONNEBY) in 1962. If I remember correctly then the red O is the Dutch mark for onschadelijk means inert.
 
Were the short projectiles plate test ones


This two projectils are slpprj m/42c - spårljuspansarprojektil - armor-piercing tracer projectile.
