Anybody know what this is? Its a photo in a lot of ammo a guy is selling but its one ive never seen before. Would like to ID before making an offer on the batch.

Assuming the tin is its original packaging, it looks a bit like 6mm flobert but it appears to be centerfire instead of rimfire.

I'm gonna guess it's some odd gallery gun ammo from another country?

So got me on a good day.

They are BB's Pellets.

At first, I looked at miniature shooting pistols 2.7, 4mm, 6mm etc

Thinking they were centerfire. Looks like primers but it's the cup for the air pellet.

Yeah, that's interesting. I can't figure it out.

I agree that it appears to be centerfire, but if it is then the primer is HUGE compared to the diameter of the case. I wonder if it might actually be rimfire, with just some kind of weird circle on the base?

And I'm seeing very pointy, plain lead bullets. They do look a lot like some Flobert rounds, or a 22 CB, but with that "centerfire look" on the base.

Right on Brother! First what clues me was the container. That is not an ammo container and it has been a while sine I have see that stuff. Damn, I am getting old... icon_eek
