Great grouping, thanks for posting. Shows the "diagonal" stripe for .50 vs the horizontal/vertical stripes for .30 cal. Shows the transition from the colored stripes to the Ammunition Identification Code--the five digit alpha-numeric code. Also shows nailed sides vs the interlocking "dove-tailed' sides.

Straight interlocking sides like that make a finger joint. To be a true dovetail, it must have semi triangular interlock tabs and slots..Nailed side ones have lap joints on the side and a butt joint on the bottom.

 

(sorry, my Hull Tech past is dorking out on me LOL :P )
