Sorry for the necro post but I'm going back through the forum looking for Damascus case restorations. I actually have one of these sporting shrapnel shells that came to me in a gun case. I think that a person would hope to find the empty clamshell after firing one and at least some of the time recover it in order to re-use it.[Linked Image from i.imgur.com][Linked Image from i.imgur.com]
