Research notes
This cartridge is based on the 360 Express case type which is about 1mm smaller in diameter than the M88 based 7x65R Brenneke (W6). This therefore is effectively an 7mm version of the 8x65R Vierordt/Nimrod (EXP21). This is likely to be a forerunner of the 7/8x65R Brenneke cartridges. It has a "W.BRENNEKE GEWEHRFABRIK LEIPSIG&SUHL." hs which is also known on the 8x72R Brenneke (W12) and so this case may have been created from that case type. (Dixon)
