    Wierd Case

    I was at a CMPicon match and while searching during "Brass Call" I found the case on the left. It has dimensions of a 30-06 case at the head and shoulder. The ID is 0.309". The rim is slightly bent and there is a bright spot on the bottom of the rim. It is an HXP 78 and it still has the original primer in it. I have seen 308 in a 30-06 chamber do this but I do not know what you could shoot a 30-06 in and have it come out like this. A mystery to me. The one on the right is a normal HXP case fired in my M1icon.
