old pellet identification

[thisisdonald]

I was out with the kids and the dog earlier and during a game of hide and seek, I spotted this stuck in a big oak. I dug it out and I can safely say Ive never seen these before.

Sorry for the bad pics, but that there inside is a steel bb! I gav it a good scrape with the knife and stuck it to a magnet just to be sure!
Its a .22, not too badly deformed and is a dome head with 3 ribs. God knows how long it was in the tree, I couldnt see anymore of them but it was in right up to the skirt.
It makes you wonder - are we the only kind of people that find stuff like this? And then post about it on the twinterweb?
So.. competition time - first one to identify it wins it... (pickup only!)

The nearest I found was Milbro from this list, but it only has twin rings, whether they made a triple?.

Think they can come in very large calibres and grain?

Or a very knackered Beeman Silver Jet? Did the Ballistic not have asteel ball bearing at the front end?

Yes it did, hence the marketing of the time: Champion BALListic. Good for dustbin drilling

Quickly realises I don't actually have any .22 calibres - or .21 or .23 either.

Honest.
