The Vickers also came with some ammo:
ICI Military issue - 1938 & 1941
And some still sealed - 1937 & 1941
Some good old stuff from the USofA circa 1960's I think.
And again
Eley before it became Eley - circa late 1950's.

Back in the 1970s, we had a club Mk4 Webley .22 revolver. Some of the rifle guys decided to have a pistol shoot and so they dug into their lockers to find all the old ammo that they had been hording for years. On the next pistol night, I opened the safe and the Webley was standing on a damp patch. The cylinder bores were red rust and dripping wet. The rifle guys claimed that the ammo was marked: "non-corrosive" and they had believed it.
