Weight and diameter say "38/200 Mk 2", which spec'ed a 178 grain RN for WWII British Empire service use. The mould looks like it was designed-by-committee, a feature of British engineering throughout history. Everything they build looks like fusion cuisine, except their food--which is pretty boring, mostly.

But good fish & chips is worth the flight. Easily.

I think it's the lighter of the two 358075's
it was offered at 160 or 200grs, your base band is a touch thicker than the 160 sh/would be [or a re-cut cherry for the lighter weight] giving you the extra weight.

I'd say the mold has had some home improvements done to it.

Its a friends. He bought @ a yard sale for 5$!! Id say he did good!

He sent me a bag to try. (I dont have mold)

I was hoping maybe that spure shape was a tell tale to someone.
I like the British mold description 9.3!! I got a chuckle. 1/2 English here "lived that" for many years. Yup food kinda aweful. :rofl: I do like Yorkshire pudding served with the roast beef!! ;)

At large, whereabouts unknown.
I think fivers on to something. It looked like a short cut rifle bullet to me since it has no crimping groove, and the base band is on the skimpy side.
