Simple and straight forward. I post a picture of a case and you guys try to figure out what it is. What's a game without getting something in the end? I don't play poker for fun, it's all about jacking the other guys cash. You know, sending them home with no rent money or without the cash to pay for that engagement ring they got suckered into.
So here's the rules. Only one post and one guess of what the cartridge is per day(24HR Period)You can't post multiple guesses in a post.
One post per 24hr period, one guess per post.
I will give one hint per cartridge post above the picture.
First person to guess the cartridge on this go round gets a new CMMG AR15 complete premium lower parts kit sent out heir way USPS Priority Mail.
Here we go!!!
This case is properly headstamped with the chambering.

6.5 Gibbs
💥 Boom!! 💥 You got it! I'm way surprised!
What was your process on figuring it out? I figured this would roll for awhile.
Please PM me your shipping info when you have the time.
Post by: X-Force on February 05, 2018, 09:56:01 PM
I knew it wasn’t obscure enough but the 7mm Rem ultra mag came to mind.
Post by: j_h_nimrod on February 05, 2018, 10:01:36 PM
I first looked at it and thought .28 Nosler but then the magazine picture gave it proportion and I realized it was a bit smaller. I looked at the Gibbs when I rebarreled a rifle a couple years ago, it is a screamer and just a very cool cartridge that was way ahead of it’s time as were he rest of Gibbs designs. I ended up with a .240 Wby. Instead but seeing the picture rang a bell. I have a .375 Gibbs (not a true Gibbs design but along his idea) that is a really fun shooter.
Plus I did not figure you would not pick something easy and being correctly head stamped narrowed it down somewhat. PM inbound.

One must though. It must be a cartridge/case you have in your possession. One that you take a photo of yourself. Same rules apply in the original post.

Thanks i a have Winchester 1885 highwall in .375 H&H. When i got the rifle i was reading up on the history of the cartridge i remembered that they released a rimmed or "flanged" version at the same time.Your box of primers gave a good size reference also..375 flanged magnum
Damn........
Well done!

.375 Flanged Magnum[edit]
The .375 Flanged Magnum (9.5×75mmR), also known as the .375 H&H Flanged Magnum but should not be mistaken for the older .375 Flanged Nitro Express,the .375 Flanged Magnum is the companion cartridge to the .375 H&H Magnum for use in double and single shot rifles and was released together with the .375 H&H Magnum by Holland & Holland. It is considered the flanged (rimmed) version of the .375 H&H Magnum. The flanged cartridge is loaded to a lower pressure of 3,250 bar (47,100 psi) in comparison to the .375H&H Magnum.

So what is the case in question?is it an H&H or is it the older Nitro Express?
Post by: jay.sharkbait on February 06, 2018, 03:31:08 PM
no the h&h is slightly longer case.

awesome i didn't mean anything negative. could you give the case dimensions please i want to look it up in my book.they are all very close.
2.927 case length
.562 rim
.506 base
It's left over from a Searcy double that I did load work for.
Rifle had three sets of barrels. The other set was .470 nitro. Pic is with a loaded .470
Post by: yorketransport on February 06, 2018, 09:28:02 PM
We're going for the case on the left. The case on the right is to give some scale. Good luck!

I'm gonna make a request.To be able to make a real guess on these we need a view of the extractor groove.Otherwise it really is a guess.this one is a good one,I say it is a belted mag.with a 30deg. shoulder,neck down to unknown size.head appears to be same size as case body.this could be several cartridges but if we could see the extractor groove like a side view it would eliminate a bunch. :twocents:That’s the point... it’s a guessing game... :chuckle:

Cheytac cases aren't belted and that maybe looks like a 270 Win on the right so I'm going to guess 375 Hubble Express or something with one of its parent cases.
Or is it a 375 Lethal Mag? Those would be my two guesses.
Winner! It’s a 375 Hubel express with a 280 Rem next to it. This is the next barrel after I smoke the 338 SnipeTac on the rifle. :tup: I’ll get a picture up when I get home next to a couple more familiar cases.

Let's go one more round. For reference, the case on the left is a 30-06.I'll go with 300 norma mag or 300 rum? One of the 2 I would think.

That is a very obscure cartridge york. I'll admit I had to resort to google for this one. No belt and that soft shoulder gave it away.
Post by: yorketransport on February 16, 2018, 06:52:54 PM
Holy crap that's a weird round! What are the ballistics like on it?
It's nearly identical to a 338 Win Mag/325 WSM ballistically. It's said to be inspired by the old Newton cases and to have been the inspiration for the 375 Ruger case. I'm familiar with it because of the 7mm and 30 Boo Boo designed by Dave Tooley. I'm looking to use this case as the possible parent case for my 300 and 270 Boondoggle wildcats.
Awesome :tup:
