Hi all

I found this on the beach a while ago and, not knowing what is was, tossed it into the "Stuff" box.
Sifting through the box today, i came across it again and still have no idea what it is. It is stamped inside what looks like 925 but i seriously doubt it is silver. It is rather heavy, but the 'join/seam' in it makes me doubt.

Have tried cleaning it, but it stays this ugly dull grey color.

Looks like a bushing, If a 20ga. shotgun shell will slide inside smoothly. It may be that it reads .675 thousands. :dontknow:

It looks like a shim to convert a 12ga single shot or double gun to 20 guage. If it will slip into the chamber and fit snugly even with the back of a 12 ga breach, that's what it might be. Or it could be a 20 guage sizing ring for a Lee Loader? Or even none of the above! Monty
