Thought people might be interested in another Kynoch Tropical ammunition tin (that I found in an old farm shed while doing repairs to the roof). Contains 20 x Kynock .375 Flanged Nitro-Express (2 1/2") rounds in excellent condition with the waxed paper wrapper still present. The tin was opened (somebody just had to have a look!) but luckily the ring-pull tin strip was still attached. This appears to have been soldered in place. The label is pretty far gone but the Kynock trademark and the word "Flanged" are still evident. If anybody has an illustration of what the label might have looked like I'd be interested in seeing it. I also found 80 x Kynock .400/.350 NE FMJ in another box in the same shed. I'm still looking for the rifles!!
