need help with bullet ID.

[turbo_vanner]

hey guys, I'm pretty new to reloading, and have been gathering bits and pieces right and left, and wound up with a bit of a mystery.

I got a box of 223 bullets (.224") from a friend who had them for a few years not knowing who made them either.

they are a 62 grain jacketed soft point, with a cannelure, and NO boat tail. On the base of the bullet, which is still jacketed, there is a T stamped into it.

Anybody know who stamps the bottom of their bullets with a T?

I'll post a pic soon.

That looks like one of the bullets made using fired .22 Rimfire cases. That's how Vernon Speer got his start during WWII.

I'm not 100% sure but it could be. Of course, other people also made their own, too.

I do like the idea of them being packed in 30 ROUND boxes not 20
