Description:To me this is one of the best case shot shells to see in section. It has it all -- case shot balls in black matrix and the powder cavity in the base underneath the pusher plate designed to force the balls out ine one direction through the nose. This was ahead of its time and is still done with shells today.

Also, this shows the three piece construction -- base cup, nose section and lead driving band. A neat piece!
