Cover your eyes — he’s gonna open it!

It's unfortunate that no manufacturer makes ammo loaded with a flat base 174 grain Mk.7 projectile.

A few years ago Kynamco / Kynoch produced a large production run of 'true' MkVII (except using NC in lieu of cordite). It was a non-boat tail bullet wuth an 'open' base pretty much identcal to the original, even giving very, very similar performace figures.

I magaged to obtain a few cases, but down to the last 'couple of hundred' rounds now.

Please excuse the quality of the sectioning of the bullet - a rusty hacksaw blade, as screwdriver and a hammer were used.

Just as a matter of interest they still produce the MkVI round for big-game hunters.

Would be nice to see some here in Nord Amerika, or at least the bullets.
