Edit. It was Hertennberger. Not Hertenberg. Made in Austria.

They make good 81mm Morter ammo too

That same shop in Marton set me off on the 222 road, 100 rounds of Winchester Western and a Savage bolt action with side mounted scope.
Rifle long ago traded but still reload those cases. 222 my go to gun.
