Could someone please identify these cartridges and clips for me. I believe the round nose bullets are for a Carcano rifle. I just don't know the others. Or what the clips go to.

Thanks.

A few of those cases appear corroded and should not be fired.

Pull the bullets, melt and cast them into big beautiful 45's

I shoot a carcano if you have a lot you plan on getting rid of.

I found that the round nose bullets are also Steyr-Mannlicher 8X50.

Clint45, I am absolutely not going to shoot them as I don't have the rifle these go to. I inherited a bunch of stuff and am sorting through it.

Went to the gunshow in Loveland yesterday and traded these for a single round and a 2 round clip for my M1. The vendor was happy and I was happy.
