Product Description
Original early British .303 Cordite Ball Mark II cartridge, manufactured by the Birmingham Metal & Munitions Co. Ltd.
The distinctive B C II headstamp identifies Birmingham manufacture, a Cordite loading and the Mark II pattern.
This early British military cartridge features the characteristic long round-nosed jacketed projectile used before the later pointed .303 service bullets. It represents an important early stage in the development of British smokeless .303 ammunition and is closely associated with the Lee-Metford and early Lee-Enfield era.
The example retains an attractive aged brass finish, original-looking round-nosed projectile and a clearly identifiable B C II headstamp.
