I believe 'smokeless' powder was introduced somewhere in the 1930's. (Sometimes referred to as 'nitro').

tom

as i was looking for info. on this brass shell, i found this

Early shotshells used black powder, which produced lots of smoke and relatively weak pressures inside the shotgun barrel. In the mid-1890s, Peters introduced so-called smokeless powders that were more powerful. Since the mid-1930s, nearly all commercially loaded shotshells have used smokeless powder

now pan man

i see no brass shell info. on that site - u have any info. regarding this one i found yesterday - about 3 inches long now

thanks

max
