If I cut that big boolit round in half, how high would the brass be filled with gunpowder?

Yet you felt the need to post, you closet pedo fag.

That or .22 MMJ was my guess, but the shoulder profile looks just wrong.

Are you even trying anymore?

That boolit is .22 Johnson Spitfire (.22 MMJ). It's a .30 carbine round necked down to .22

I'm starting to believe it's a version of .22 MMJ. The shoulder looks wrong from demo pictures but it's base is stamped "P C 43", which was applied to .30 Carbine ammunition.

The reason I don't think it's .221 Remington Fireball is because the headstamp predates .221 RFB by 20 years.

Further, OAL matches .22 MMJ's--at 42mm. The rim diameter is slightly smaller than the .223--more likely 9mm than .221 RFB's 9.6mm. The neck is definitely different, which makes me curious who reloaded it and whether dies still exist for it.
