Not Sure where to post this 10MM Bren 10

[hollywood63]

Bought a batch of brass from a member here and found this. Anyone have any history for it. I asked on the 10MM forum and it didn't get much.

From my own faulty memory, the Bren 10 was the brainchild of Col. Jeff Cooper and a couple of associates back in the mid 80s. It was a ballistic success but a commercial failure because the pistol it was designed for couldn't be produced quickly enough to meet demand. Plus recoil was pretty stout, leading to the downloaded version now known as .40S&W.

I was wondering about the case with a BREN 10 headstamp

I've never seen one... but that don't mean much.

IIRC, the original 10mm ammo was produced by Norma. I don't know if the cases were headstamped Norma or Bren 10.

From one of my favorite youtube channels, a look at the Bren Ten and some history behind it.
