Strange sized bullet in my park.

Found this guy next to a tree at my park. This Fors Core is killer . Looks like a miss fire. Very skinny, could it be a pistol shell?

Also used the little 5" DD coil and man, it makes a huge diff in trashy areas.

It is rimless so it is from an automatic pistol. My guess would be a .25 caliber automatic

 

[Rockhoppernc]

What do you guys think would shoot it?

 

[trdking]

Measure the diameter. What ever caliber you come up with in thousands e.g..2500 or .3200 with be what you can shoot it with. in an automatic handgun. This one won't fire it is a dud. bad primer

Cheers

I'm pretty sure that a .30 Carbine, shot from a semi-automatic rifle.

Looks like a .30 carbine case that someone put a lead round ball into after it was fired to me.,,,

 

[dirtlooter]

first thought was also 30 carbine

Looks like the head stamp says WC 8 3 5. If that stands for Western Cartridge Co., August 1935 --- was the M-1 carbine around at that time?

Another vote for .30 carbine.
