I picked up a Heavy (looks like a 18 inch) octagonal barrel one yesterday. I'm curious if anyone knows anything about them or where I can get more information on them.

getting closer...found an ammo manufacturer...

FLOBERT AMMUNITION is named after the French gunsmith M. Flobert. He was the true inventor of the rimfire principle.
Originally, Flobert ammunition was by definition a cartridge wherein the priming and propellant charges were one and the same. More recently, rimfire cartridges, small shot cartridges and Flobert cartridges supporting a round-nose bullet were developed to contain a small additional amount of powder as a supplementary propellant charge, thus enabling a more effective cartridge to be produced. These are the cartridges in use today.
FLOBERT STARTING BLANKS are intended for use with starting and signal pistols. They emit a sharp loud bang of approximately 100 decibels.
213 0327 .22 6mm Crimped Blank
FLOBERT BULLETED CARTRIDGES in 6mm caliber with pointed or round-nose bullets are primarily intended for pest control. In spite of the small ignition charge, the cartridges maintain an accurate flight path. These cartridges are mainly fired from smooth barreled guns.
Accuracy is ensured up to distances of 15 metres.
