I picked up a pair of USN 6 inch, 47 Caliber MK 6-0 powder cases. They are both dated 1943, large brass cases like these seem a bit hard to find outside of collections. At about 28 pounds of brass, (about 38 inches long) probably most have been sold for scrap! They have a bit of issues at their mouth and some normal dents and scrapes, but I’m happy with them. Here are a couple of photos of one of them. Note the electric primer is dated 1952.

Thanks for looking,

BKW
