An image with >>white light<< like sunlight on the lower tube will show that there are stamps under the >>30.30 W<<. You can see the worn >>m/m<< stamp between the ...0 W... Too, you could use a glass & examine it closely. What I was suppose is that an American gunsmith opened an 8,15X46R chamber to 30-30 dims. I have a Remo tip-up stalker that has 8,15X46 1/2R rifling but a 30-30 Chamber. I have found it best to >>fire form<< the cases & use 8,15 bullets.


Too, there's an odd >>Crown over N<< stamp on the water table as if it passed thru the Z-M proof facility. Not sure exactly why it is there but there's a story associated with it. I do wish we could view the original proof stamps under the >>30.30 W<<.
