I have a bargain!

Spent this weekend in Mandurah with the rellies for aus day, and went down to the markets there. Here's what I picked up:
Tap and Die set, $15 Aud:

I can finally pull apart my mini's and thread things now!
Some .50 cal (at a guess) bullet:

Unsure what it is. Marked PSD 8 6, if anyone could shed some light on that. Looks like a good donor for the gun shell pen-gun. ($1 Aud)

Small hobby clamp, $2 Aud.

And for the sake of it, a pic of my bootiful kitten.
Not selling anything for clarity's sake.
Did I win or did I win?

Check if these dimensions match up, it looks like a 338 Lapua Magnum.

I have some M1 Carbine ammo with that headstamp. It is Korean Military ammo manufactured by PMC. Give us a side shot of the case.

Hmm, Heckler and Kat.
Actually, do you think he'd bother with that? He'd probably revert to the Corner Shot...

oh no, jack, use something PRE FABRICATED??? unacceptable!
He would make his own, as previously mentionned, out of epoxy, 10 cc syringes, and then demand for MOAR POWER in it's earlier stages...
