I thought maybe it would be fun to post pictures of cartridges we have to see if other members can guess them right.

Bonus points if you can guess the bullets or brass correctly!

Actually 7.62 Tokarev (but let's not split hairs), yes, no, sort of, no, no, no, yes, no, no, yes-ish, no, ?, yes (but which one?).

No .30 Mauser, just 7.62 Tokarevs. There are some 8x57 Mausers and 7.62x54Rs..........not to mention 8x58R Krag, Walther 9mm Rocket, 7.92x96 AT, 11mm Gasser, .44 Russian, and a few I will have to check!

Military 8x58R Krag factory dummy. Can't get confused with a loaded ball round.

No, that one is a Russian 7.62x39 black/green tipped subsonic round.

Oooh.....that's a 2 round clip from a 7.62x38 Soviet 2 round "Silent" pistol. One round is a "loaded" dummy, the other fired. Really rare and interesting piece...especially with the clip.
Cartridges shows are really interesting; no jerky, knives, Indian jewelry, etc.

i never knew they made armor piercing 357 mag?

.458 SOCOM, ?, ?, 7.63×39, .300 WM, .30-06, .300 Blackout, not sure about the rest...finishes up with a .30 carbind doe.

All correct!
The tallest one is a 7mm, it looks smaller than the others because it amax is crammed so far into the case.

I found a few more that ill make a random post with after i finish poking thru my old cartridge bucket.

Heres a welterweight test.
