Name those cartridges!

[JBradley500]

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!

look like those were reloaded note bottom of brass but i was wrong as first look, some bran brass has that bulge in there mold of it factor new

 

[saiga308]

heres the wthby note bottom of brass

 

[LoonWulf]

Around the base? Thats the belt, on a belted magnum. Of no use now but it was used for headspace on the original belteds.

I think those are all factory new, the shoulders arnt as sharp (on the non wbys) and there arnt any scratches or scuffs (bright spots) as id expect from a fired and resized cartridge.

 

[JBradley500]

Excellent. Got most of the bullet info right too. And yes, all of these are factory new. I have some reloaded stuff but it doesn't photograph as well.
