    Unusual 30 cal bullet

    I found this bullet in a box of old cartridges, it is .308 dia and is a jacketed soft point and the weight is 330 grains with a lead core. Some collectors say that Winchester may have produced such a bullet back in the 1930's ? other claim that Ernest Hemingway wrote about hunting big cats with a 30 cal that used a bullet of 340 grains !

    Anyone seen a bullet like this ?Attachment 17201Attachment 17202Attachment 17203Attachment 17201Attachment 17202Attachment 17203
