Hi Sieger, Actually since my last post I found a picture of the Swiss round and see that the brass is actually spiked or crimped into the bullet groove about 1/2 way up the brass neck on both sides.. at least from the picture is appeared so?? there isn't a cannalure on the mid part of the bullet... I would imagine they didn't want a round to telescope using automatic weapons.. As it appears, it shouldn't have any effect on loading or shooting... I will probably put a, "correct for my purpose!"cannalure on them just the same.. I'm mostly after the 93 gr. ball aspect of the bullet... Best to all, til...lat'r....GT
