303tom,
Well technically all of your cartridges have a metric name.... It may not be their most common name though.

Roger that, here are some rifle rounds with a few pistol cartridges sprinkled in.
.338 RUM, .270 WSM, 9mm NATO, 9.3x62, 7.62x39, .30-06, .45 ACP, .223, .380 ACP

Now this is a fun thread!
303tom I can't even take a guess at most of your larger rounds LOL the .50 I get and the .308, 300, .338Lapua but that's it LOL.
You were right on every thing on mine besides the .303 its actually a 7-30 waters like Scotty said. Ill let the little mystery round stay that way for a bit longer......its normally referred to by its metric designation, and that load uses 88grn Berger flatbase vlds.....

Gtscotty ~ the 375/33 pretty much duplicates the 375 H&H in performance, about 2600 fps with a 300 grain. Out of my Browning BAR tho the recoil is very mild.

Sadly my old gunsmith has been dead a number of years...he was getting ready to build me a Browning bar in 458 win Mag. The wildcat is easy...just neck up 338 brass, RCBS has dies. My Browning run a KDF muzzle brake, between that and the gas system it really is a pussycat to shoot.
Well you got them 4 right, the others are 9.5x77/.375 CheyTac, 10.3x77/.408 CheyTac, 10.5x83/416 Barrett & this one I have never seen before, found it in a box of stuff, I think it is Egyptian 11.5x89 from what I can tell it`s built on the .50 case.

Ooh can I play? I grabbed these off my bookshelf, a fairly good representation of what I shoot.

It's probably just me, but all I saw was a bunch of bullets lined up across the top of a tweed amp, and I'm wondering more about that!

The 2nd 12ga really shouldn't be that hard, it says what it is right on the side. A little faded but you should be able to make it out if you know what you are looking for
