Unknown Case
Ok, help me identify this case;
Rim diameter – 0.497”
Case Length – 2.18”
Fired case will not accept a 308 bullet.
Rimless and Berdan
Looks like a 7.65x53 but fatter at rim and shoulder with longer neck.
---------8
D------------------A
---------92---------Ignore the dashes, formatting only.
Headstamp.
Thanks

Re: Unknown Case
They made a 53? I thought that it was 7.62x54

Re: Unknown Case
The 7.65x53 was the Argentine and Turk Mauser round.
