Wadcutter brass. Good stuff to have if you load wadcutters.
Never seen brass like that.
I know you meant .38 special and thank you for starting this thread as I too, have learned something new. …..See pic below. Found these in some range brass. 39 special. What's with the two lines. I've seen one line before, but not two.
The lines are for use of optical lasers for QC. The bottom one is for check of powder fill. The top one is for the showing of the area where the base of the bullet would be. That was told to me by a commercial reloader that worked for Remington for 45 years until he retired.
Thanks for this info. My info wasn't quite close enough; only 1/8th inch off.A lot of disinformation here. The front case cannelure is NOT behind the bullet base. It is located in alignment with the rear bullet cannelure which is a little over 1/8 inch above the bullet base.
