Found some lurkers I had forgotten about
Full packet of 5 x 500/465 Kynoch 480 grainer SP's forgot I had them the packets a bit tatty but the inner contents are ok the 303 round is for comparison.
I also dug out a box of 20 308 M118 Long range rounds amazing what you scrounge and also some 308 for law enforcement only 308 got 80 rounds in that trade. enjoy I will get the metrics and large western rifle out one day and take some more pics. I have a 12.7 x 105 APID coming hopefully it will be a nice one traded a 30MM DEFA round for it and a nice one to boot.

interesting cartridges in 30 cal
Attachment 67618Attachment 67619Attachment 67621
New Zealand marked 7,62x51mm from 1960
The other cartridges are the long range 30 cal AMU cartridges from 1960, used by the US Army in Model 70 rifles. The 300 Weatherby and Ackley wildcats were used, cartridges were manufactured by Winchester and headstamped WCC 60 and Remington headstamped REM-UMC 300. Later the 30-338 Winchester was found to be a better choice
