Guns International #: 100293308
An original Morris's cloth and cardboard wrapper of 100 297/230 cartridges.

Eventually these Morris Tubes and Morris cartridges were advertised to the English civilian population as, "A bit of sport with your Service Rifle". This packet with its' original string wrapping is as it came from the Kynoch factory over 110 years ago.
