Hey Folks,
Pick this stuff up at a gun show years ago. Was marked 90 rounds 7.92x57 Mauser. Sat on it for awhile and dug it out recently and quickly realized it wasn't 7.92. Looks like maybe Egyptian writing, but not sure. Bullet diameter measures approximately .308-.309 diameter, case 2.11, aol 2.99. (Note: all measurements are approximate) Any ideas? 308? 7.65 Argentine (my best guess), 7x57? 7.7 Jap?
7.92 x 57 on left for comparison
Thanks in advance.
