No Headstamps?

Gator 45/70 · Jan 9, 2018

Anyone recognize these cases?

No headstamps and Berdan primed plus down right ugly

Cases appear slightly longer than a .308

Thanks

Need side pics compared to some other caliber.

I really need a better photo, but I would say 6.5x52mm Italian Carcano. There is a headstamp, but they are faint.

.308 in the center, Shoulders appear to have a different angle also

And one more

Not sure but looks like a 7mm08 with the wrong primers. Not sure what it could be.

Thanks for the replays, I have never seen such a mangled up case head

Who ever had this at Sherburne must of been having major problems with extraction.

Thanks again.

I had some just like that in some 30-06 I got from a guy on the CMP Forum. They were mixed in.
I normally can fund them on here

Looks like that 7.62x51 German DAG ammo that SGammo was selling . The headstamps were milled off because of some euro export law banning military ammo sales. By the looks of the case neck,(kinda blown out) it looks like it was fired in a .308 with "really long" headspace or from a rifle chambered in a different caliber then the ammo, maybe a 30.06 or 8mm

That makes sense, Thanks

What is the neck diameter? Here is a 6.5mm Carcano next to a 7.62 Nato. There was also a 7.35mm Carcano, just a 6.5mm blown out but I don't have a sample handy.

I don't have a mic handy however I believe I have a mix like you posted since one case neck will fit inside of another case neck, Both are sanitized of markings and Berdan primed, Thanks

Late reply but check the dimensions of the cases against a 7.5 Swiss, that's what immediately came to mind with the two outside cases in the pic with the 308 in the middle. They're slightly longer, bit more taper in the case and larger rim diameter.
