I have a bunch of ammo and brass that came from an estate. Some of it is great, some is junk then there's the weird stuff like this.
The round on the left is a 7x57 factory DWM/Speer round. The one on the right really looks like 7x57 but there's that short stub of a bullet and the entire round feels like the same weight as an empty case although I haven't weighed it.
I have about 50 of these. Anybody know what they are?
Another oddity well to me anyway. I have a stripper clip of 5 LC 1975 .308 rounds (you know 7.62 by something) and one of the bullets was sitting further back in the case than the other 4. Upon closer inspection that one round has a cracked neck. These are factory Lake City rounds with sealed primers. Anyone here ever seen a cracked factory round like this?
