Gentlemen:

See post on Western Mark 5 shells for details on how I got these Very Happy , but also was handed 2 PAPER 16 shells. Don't appear to be reloads - no marks of firing noted - crimps fresh and lightly waxed. NO writing on burgundy paper. Marked REVELATION No (with line under o) 16 and W.A. on bottom of brass.

Wonder what size shot or drams? hmmmmm..............

Was that the Western Auto or Montgomery Wards store brand? (Sorry-I'm WAY to young to know about either Rolling Eyes)

As I sit here and read the box , the Revelation 16g product was sold only by Western Auto stores and associates. This box is full of 3 1/4 DRS 1 1/8 oz. #4 shot. They are a dark red/burgundy wax paper shell with high base and six fold crimp. Look more like the winchester brand. The info I mention is on the hull as well as the box. The No.0 is probably shot size.
Best,
Ron
