unknown 20mm

[militariasniper]

I have what I believe to be a 20mm. It measures 75mm long, the main body is 20mm in dia, it's steel with a exposed lead tip and a flat base. Can anyone help me identify this projectile so I can mate it with its correct case?
Thanks in advance,
Garth.

Looks like projectile for an M61 vulcan cannon.

Looks like a Vulcan to me too.
The tip won't be lead, its alloy of some sort.

Thanks for the replies, now I know I'm looking for a 102mm case.

Indeed a 20mm M55 Target Practice projectile for the Vulcan cannon.
Tip is made from alumium.

Cheers, Cornman
