Costco briskets

I just put 2 7.5 lb briskets from Costco on the WSM. As I was rubbing one up I looked at it and thought to myself, "this thing looks like a packer but with part of the flat cut off". I guess it's what I'd call a snub nosed packer.

I didn't take pictures but I'm pretty sure this is what I have. (I've only made 3 briskets in my life so my frame of references is limited).

Anyone else have the same experience?
 
After viewing Chris's virtual brisket, I now think it's a flat. The fact that it's rounded on that end made me think it was the point but it's too uniformly thick to be a from that end of a packer.

Now back to your regularly scheduled programming.
 
Costco used to only sell flats and then about 8-months ago started selling packers. However, last week I went to get a couple of packers and they only had flats! I ended up borrowing my cousin's Sam's Club card to get whole packers & bone-in butts since Costco doesn't have those either.
