    Usually a $3-$4 round. I have a spare or two if you plan to come to the Ag-Hall or Oaks shows. You can also try to hit our PA Cartridge Show August 17-18.

    What is the ag hall show? I do go to Oaks regularly, plus Harrisburg, York, Gettysburg.

    So they sort of have a primer at both ends and two explosive charges in the middle, one in the cartridge, one in the bullet in front of tracer charge.

    Agricultural Hall, Forks of the Delaware, Allentown.

    FWIW, if you're buying them for more than $3-4, you're going to the wrong places to buy collector/old ammo.

    This is Canadaicon, they just don't appear here. They cost what the collectors ask. Furthermore see above for why I'll paint up a ball bullet to cover off my collection.

    As for the moggy batting it that and probably the resultant fire from the incendiary part should keep you all entertained for a bit........

    IIRC this ctg was issued with a cardboard sleeve around the bullet to protect it. Sleeve was removed before loading in spotting rifle.
