[ARCHIVED THREAD] - ID this round?

Posted: 8/29/2006 7:19:53 PM EDT

Headstamp is WCC 85. Bullet has a faded red sealant, and the bullet is crimped with what looks like a hexagon crimp at the top, unlike the normal circular crimps I've seen.

I've read that one of the Winchester loads has a crimping like that, but I cannot remember for the life of me. And any search terms I've used have pulled up nothing.

Thanks.

I thought it was Winchester. Think its Q3131 or Q3131A? Seems like one of those loads had a rather distinctive crimp at the base of the bullet.

ok I just went and opened a box of q3131a for you and they are not crimped like that, but the q3131 is; The box I opened was from '02

Thanks for looking that up for me. I found it with some TZZ headstamped rounds, and was hoping it came from IMI :)
