Name these Cartridges Challenge

[AKMtnRunner]

Did some hand loading tonight and these are the final products. Can you name these cartridges? The bullets on the right side correspond with the loaded ammo on the left in the same order. The two far right bullets belong to the last cartridge.

I'll take a stab at it, left to right:

.375 Remington Ultra Magnum or .375 Ruger
.454 Casull
6.8 Remington SPC
.38 Long Colt

FTW:
1. ?
2. .45 Long Colt
3. 5.56 NATO
4. 10mm

This is a perfect example of why we put head stamps on brass.

Can't recall if I posted this here before, but I have the pic already so why not. Can anyone ID these:

 

[tark]

DUHHHHH...... None of them is a 7.62X25!!!!! Hi Jonny. I think I can ID the 7.62X39 in the middle. That looks like a .30 carbine proof round on the right end. I know you are a very serious cartridge collector, so I'm not surprised you dug up some strange ones. I'm guessing the black cased round to the left of the AK round is also a proof round, but I don't know the caliber. It just kinda looks like one.....

I give up on the rest.

 

[tark]

Is that a .333 Jeffery flanged nitro-express next to the carbine proof round? Sure looks like one.

 

[tark]

And an 06 with an off colored bullet next to it

 

[jonnyc]

They're all European military rounds, except for the second from the left (hint: it's Chinese), and the far right (a US military exptl., not .30 Carb.).

 

[Panzerschwein]

Is one a 5.8x42mm Chinese?

 

[jonnyc]

Ding! There's one, second from the left.

 

[jonnyc]

Ok, too obscure? Here are the answers:

From the left: 4x27 CETME, Chinese 5.8x42, French 8mm Ribeyrolle, 7.62x39, 8x63 Norwegian, 8mm Murata, .345 Machine Rifle.

 

[Panzerschwein]

Ding! There's one, second from the left.

KNEW IT!!!!

I sure wish China could import that round and some semi-auto versions of their "Q" series guns. It would be cool to have another intermediate round to experiment and have fun with.

Uhhhhhh.....I was just about to say that...!
