robinb Posted February 13, 2019 Author #2 Posted February 13, 2019 After much searching I found a little info about this shell. Only 25 were loaded and test fired. The goal was 3200 feet per second and armor penetration of 1.5 inches. It failed so the test was abandoned. My shell was never loaded so it must have been a left over from the test.
