Research notes
This was an experimental automatic rifle cartridge that was based on the 30-40 Krag base. The case length was the same as the .33 WCF case and utilised the shoulder angle of the .35 WCF case. Also discussed on p. 163 of WRACO Vol. 1. The specimen on the right is a replica by OPM in South Africa made for cartridge collectors.
