Another Headstamp For The Experts... 7x57

Found this 7x57 case on my property a couple of years back...

The headstamp reads:

PS
@
1948

Obviously the 1948 is the date of mfg... I included the @ key to denote the primer position... what does "PS" stand for?

The PS could also be POVAZSKE STOJARNE which would make it a Czech round. Does the primer have any letters/numbers (such as a T superposed on a 3) ? The so-called T3 primer would cinch it as being Czech.

Captn, no letters or no's on the primer... it (the primer) does have a few raised "bumps" on it though...
