[ARCHIVED THREAD] - Name that cartridge (Part II)

Ok here is Part II. Cerberus if you know these already not only am I very impressed, I'm starting to think you are not normal.......let everyone else take a stab at it first. I tried to find a couple of real odd ones and mixed them in with some real easy ones.

4=Handloaded 7.65*53 (Turk, Bel, Argie)?

7=6.5 Carcano?

#7 is correct.

Somebodys go to know what #4 is!

I thought it would be the hardest to guess.

I'll post pics of the Case heads after a while to show the stampings.

My guesses:

#4 .30-03 or 7.62x54?

Edit:
Scratch 7.62x54. That's rimmed, IIRC.

How about 7.7 Japanese?
