OK, guys, Gewehrman got hold of me, and what he bought was the dangerous ammo. I didn't realize any of this stuff was still around. The problem is that it has a soft rolled copper jacket that causes EXTREME copper fouling, resulting in higher pressures and burst barrels (NOT COOL!) It is Danish manufactured, and the headstamp reads like this; V146, followed by a small triangle, 48, HA. If anybody sees any of this stuff around, don't buy any unless you want it for a cartridge collection, and warn the seller that this ammo has blown up a lot of rifles, and with liability being what it is today, if I had some, I damn sure wouldn't sell it to anybody!
