Hi Tom:
I'm new to this forum and would be interested in obtaining any printed material relating to the 15mm BESA that you can email to me. Do you know of any cartridge cases or dummy rounds for sale?
Thanks,
Bob Gorman

Hi Bob unfortunately I am still on dial up here so the only document small enough to wire is the 15mm Range table.
If you cover actual postage and the cost of a blank disc I can easily burn you the stuff.
