Well, I hit my local range for brass rat duties. The usual stuff, plus a few oddities:
A handful of .45 ACP cases that looked like they were made in a high-school metal shop class. Brass, but Berdan primed. The case head looked like it had been hand hammered and then put on a belt sander and the headstamp looked like somebody did it with a hammer and punch. A nearby cardboard container listed the stuff as military surplus from the 1940's era. Oh well, at least they are good for scrap brass.
Someone sent a clamp-on muzzlebrake 30 feet downrange...
Then I saw it- A fat handful of .50 Beowulf cartridge cases- I've never seen these before- these things are HUGE!!
I thought at first maybe 45-70.. then I saw the rim... what are these?? Wow!
