Hi All
I was offered the below item.
I taught it was initially for measuring shot or powder but now I am unsure as I can see no way to use it.
I should have it at the weekend but any info welcome.
maybe there is open at the opposing end so of the knurled brass end and it is like an open topped syringe where you pour the powder/shot, looks to be of a v large measuring volume if so, maybe a punt gun measuring dispenser??
Thanks
Ken
