Since i really enjoyed collecting 20X138B rounds. I thought once i was running out variations to collect id would jump over to a new AA/Small cannon round.

These post war 23X152mm rounds seem quite the good supplement!

Here i have a Hungarian HE Drill round (HE rounds known as OFZ) made in 1971 with markings on projectile body and fuze, and the base of the shell is just a screw. Plus a AP projectile (AP known as a BZT) with no markings.

I have included a photo of my new rounds next to my 20X138B round and a .303 bullet. Just to show a size comparison.

Keep an eye out since this is probably the start of more 23mms to come!
