[p85]

A sample of ammo that I weapons for. Can you guess what they are? They are not placed in any particular order.

[kd7nqb]

EAA Witness 10 mm, .40 s&w
Ruger p85 9 mm
Ruger Mk III target .22
T/C Contender with various barrels
Beretta Tomcat .32

Acording to your sig line I would guess there is a 10mm, a .40, 9mm, .32 and .22lr.

Beyond that I see a 12gauge and a few others.

Ok proboly not helpful at all.

[PotatoJudge]

I'll show my ignorance. L to R:
12 ga, 2 3/4
10mm Silvertip
40S&W
45 ACP XTP
9mm
22 WMR
44 mag Silvertip
32 ACP
22LR
9mm shotshell
30-06
7 Rem Mag, but that's a steep shoulder

[p85]

LOL, guess I should have removed my sig line. But it won't identify all.

[SaMx]

there is a 12 gauge, a .22 lr, a .22 mag, a 44 magnum, 9mm, 10mm, .40 s&w, .32 acp. not sure what the rifle rounds are, but the one on the far right looks like some sort of short magnum.

[p85]

You got all but 1 PotatoJudge.

[Gbro]

Looks like a 7MM Weatherbug by the shoulder.
But the head stamp is the proper way, to many mistakes are made in assuming.

[p85]

The last one still not correctly identified. Good guesses tho.

[sacp81170a]

It's a belted magnum of some kind. .300 Weatherby?

[p85]

Close.

[Outlaws]

.270 Weatherby Mag

[p85]

wrong direction

[Outlaws]

Well its can't be over .30 since its appears the same size bullet as the 30-06.

30-378?

[Dustinthewind]

.270 Weatherby?

[p85]

30-378 weatherby. You got it. 180 grain barnes X bullet. 3450 feet per second 4600 ft-lb muzzle energy. Originally developed for 1000 yard benchrest shooting.

[sacp81170a]

Shoulda known. The shoulder's a little steeper than a .300. Oh well, at least I got the caliber right. :)

[p85]

Anyone else want to try? Post your pics and let us guess.

[Outlaws]

Okay, here a few of mine.

Come on now, they are not the most exotic cartridges, but its what I had laying around. :cool:

[PercyShelley]

I'll take a crack. Left to right:

1) .22 short

4) Err... .22 ultra magum? (Is there such a thing? What is this?)
5) .17 remington
6) 7.62x39mm
7) 30-40 krag?
8-11) No idea

That easy?

#2 is actually a 22cb short, but there is no way anyone could know that from a picture. :evil:
Good job though. I didn't think many people had seen the normal 22CB. Which for some reason is labeled 6mm...but it doesn't measure that.

[JesseL]

You mean I was right? I wasn't too sure about the 204 and the 243.

[Outlaws]

You mean I was right? I wasn't too sure about the 204 and the 243.

Well the .243 isn't a factory loaded round. Its a 65gr. V-Max.

[JesseL]

Here's my entry:

If anyone complains, I'll try for a clearer pic.

[Geronimo45]

.380, .45 ACP, .38 Special, .357 Mag, no idea until the last two: 8mm Mauser, 12 gauge 3.5"?

[JesseL]

You were good for the first three...

[Outlaws]

1. 9mm
2. 45acp
3. 357mag
4. 44mag
5. 243 Win
6/7 looks like a 6mm Remington, the other I don't know.
8. ? .30 something IMO
9. ?

[Geronimo45]

Somehow I didn't notice that #4 was considerable bigger than #3...
Well, it's rimmed... and seems about the size of the .45 ACP... wouldn't be .45 Colt by any chance?

[JesseL]

1. 9mm
2. 45acp
3. 357mag
4. 44mag
5. 243
6/7 looks like a 6mm Remington, the other I don't know.
8. ?
9. 12 gauge.

Nope.

[Outlaws]

Well then that leaves 3 and 4 as the 38spl and 44 spl. #1 is a .40S&W.
The shotgun shell is beyond me. Too much brass there for any I am familiar with.

[Geronimo45]

Is the shotgun shell a 10 gauge? If not, I'm guessing a 20 gauge.

[JesseL]

3 is a 38 special, but 4 is not a 44 special.

[JesseL]

The shotgun shell isn't 10, 12, or 20 gauge.

[Outlaws]

but 4 is not a 44 special.
454 casull or a 460....but it looks narrower than the 45....

[JesseL]

Think smaller...

[cmb3366]

7&8 is 257bob or 7x57
4 is 41mag?
The shotshell is 16ga

[Outlaws]

41magnum. :evil::evil::evil::evil::evil::evil:

[Geronimo45]

.41 Magnum for #4?

[JesseL]

8 is 257bob or 7x57

The shotshell is 16ga

I'll assume you miscounted and confirm that 7 is a .257 Roberts. The shotshell isn't a 16 gauge either.

So far we've got:

380 acp
45 acp
38 special
41 Magnum
?
6mm Remington
257 Roberts
?

[Geronimo45]

28 gauge for the shotgun.

[Outlaws]

5 is 243 remember? :neener:

[JesseL]

28 gauge for the shotgun.

YES! I was wondering if someone was going to guess .410 before they got to 28.:D

5 is 243 remember?:neener:

Nope, not a .243:neener:

D'oh, sorry about that Outlaws. Should have said "5. Wrong".

8 is indeed 30-40 Krag.

.284, no

[JesseL]

Duh. Way too long for a .284 (I thought the rim looked rebated at first glance)

Looks almost like a 30-06, but the shoulder angle is a little sharp.

[TehK1w1]

Sorry for the lack of bullets, I pick up the wierd ones at the range. Bonus for anyone who can figure out what #1 used to be

[cmb3366]

1 was a 223 that was fired in a 7.62x39
4 is one of the WSSM's
5 is 35rem
6 is 303brit
7 is 45/70
8 is 270Wby
9 is 30/06
10 is 30/378 or 338/378

?
45 ACP?
45 Colt?
.223 WSSM
?
?
45-70
.257 Weatherby
30-06
30-378 Weatherby

[TehK1w1]

So far the following are correct
1. 5.56 nato (dunno what it was fired in, but it didn't like it)
2. 45ACP
3. ??? cmon peeps :)
4. ??? WSSM, what size?
5. .35 remington
6. .303 british
7. .45-70
8. ??? weatherby, what size???
9. .30-06 (I got my 1st deer with the cartridge pictured)
10. .338-378 weatherby

[fatelk]

#3 .480 Ruger?
#4 .223 WSSM
#8 .257 Weatherby?

[fatelk]

I have a photo of a few from my collection. I used to collect years ago, started as a teenager, quit when most anything I didn't have cost over $10 each.

Some are fairly common, some downright obscure. .30 Pederson anyone? Or maybe a .236 USN (rimmed 6mm Lee Navy), 30-03 Springfield, has anyone even seen a round with the headstamp "NORMA 257 CONDOR"?

I used to know what each and every one of these was. Now I'd have to do a little research to figure out a few of them.

Well, I think you got a few of them but you might be seeing quite a few that aren't there.:D

Reminds me of the time the boss would write wise, inspirational, teambuilding sayings on the board in the break room at work, and wrote "None of us is as smart as all of us".

Someone modified it by erasing the N in none, the s in the first as, adding an s to the second as, and erasing "all of us". The boss was not amused.
