Default Hi Rob

There are some very faint markings on the underside of the projectile, nothing I can make out. Although the different nose cap is solid and of heavy steel construction, I think it is an add on because of the absence of the ballistic cap? No welds present on that location, and I have not tried to pop it off. It is pretty solid. The only discernible markings are on the band...marked SHC 056 inert. I spent a little time today making the round look presentable, the old lettraset decals are already falling off. A winter project to get it up to snuff. Was the ballistic cap something that could be pried off? Cheers Rob
