It looks like the round has been fired, retrieved and then reloaded because it has the rifling grooves.

GuestJune 15, 2021 at 2:02 amBest guess? .50BMG Stick a ruler behind the round, right where the bullet enters the case and that’ll give you a goodish idea of the size and from there it’d be easy to say for sure, but unless you’ve got tiny hands, I’m sticking with .50BMG
