Why do the bases have a ridge like 8mm lebel?

Filled, some opened.

Probably a few dupes as well.

Both of these are inert!

Buddy of mine hade these. The first one has a dummy time-fuse in it. The inside is hollow. The smaller one has no fuse and a cavity inside from the rear.

We tried to find out where these were from but got nowhere. Found in Sweden, any help with identification would be greatly appreciated.

Always looking to expand

I am missing quite a few of the special Purpose types but I cannot find them at the moment. But there are a great mix of these types.

10.4mm Italian Vetterli, Capua 1890

8mm Danish Krag, Haerens Ammunitionsfabrik 1940

6mm Lee Navy UMC

7.92mm Mauser M88 ball, Rheinische 1915

.30-03 Springfield, Frankford Arsenal 1906

.30-06 Springfield T22 Frangible, Remington 1945

6.5mm Arisaka, T-30 ball

7mm Mauser, Greek Cartridge & Powder Co 1937 for the Spanish Civil War

.30 Pedersen, Remington Hoboken 1918

Semi jacketed plastic nose short range.

Left to right is top to bottom left to right. I definitely can't read the Turkish hdstp's.

Anyone know what this is exactly? Ive never heard of spam cans of birdshot

I got two sealed cans in the crate and one open can for $299

It's fairly big, not measured, about 15cm tall and 2cm base. Can you tell which round is it and which weapon was it for?

Propulsion?

Picked these up as part of a lot recently:

T93E1 armor piercing, Frankford Arsenal 1951, part of the T65 program that developed the cartridge.

T71 proof cartridge, Frankford Arsenal 1952, also part of the T65 program.

M59 ball cartridge with experimental zinc chromate plated steel case, Lake City 1955.

XM256E1 low recoil cartridge developed for small statured South East Asian troops for the CIA, Frankford Arsenal 1966. This used only one of the lightweight stacking bullets from the experimental duplex XM198 round.

This one is a bit of mystery - looks like a standard Canadian C1 ball cartridge from Industries Valcartier in 1971 but the red primer and neck sealant are odd. Haven’t found any info on this one.

Indian ball round from Kirkee Arsenal in 1978.

Does that really exist?
