I have some of this little cartridge, the measures are:
Bullet Ø 5,7 mm
Case lenght 15 mm
Rim 8,8 mm
Rim thickness 1,2 mm
Neck is some 4,6 mm.
Ø of primer is 4 mm
May this be some early Bergmann? I do not see it in the CoW 16.
Very excited to find out what this may be!
This should be a (.22?) Morris aiming tube.
