I picked up these Pressure Test cartridges at the
recent ECRA meeting in Switzerland, but I have
lost my note on them. All have different
headstamps and have two pressure test holes (of
different sizes!!!) in the case, and then not quite
across from these is a hole drilled through the
case and into the bullet. All have a dark green
strip across the case head. Can anyone tell me
what these are???

Switzerland, and again I have lost my note on them. All have
different headstamps All have a black strip across the case
head. In addition they have four distinctive punctures in the
bullet, two relatively close together on one side and two on the
other. It looks like some kind of gripping tool was used to pull the
bullet. Can anyone tell me what these are???

Two strangly marked cartridges. Neither looks like a reload. Both
have a shallow depression drilled in the head and painted red.
Has anyone encountered anything similar to these two
cartridges???
