Vinyo I can post the head stamps, but then you wouldn't get to guess what they were. These all bar 3 are/were factory cartridges

OK, let's play.
1st picture:
2nd : 450 Dakota
7th : 404 Jeffery
8th : 338 Lapua
2nd picture:
1st: 7mm Dakota

That's all i can guess.

Vinyo 404Jeffery and Lapua are correct, there is no 450 Dakota or 7mm Dakota
below is my reply to big bore forum

Thomas the chromed/nickel case with bullet in it is a 416Rigby as id by Paul there is no 500 Jeffery in the line up.

Paul
First one is 6/284 so I give you that one, next X, 270win, 300win, x, x, 416Rigby, x(although there is a 10.75 schuler in line up), x(close - is a wildcat), x, 450 Rigby, x(out of production), x(this is a wildcat - there is a 338Lap in line up), x, x(wildcat few diff names), 404 Jeffery, x, x(also a wildcat)

Yes it is a 500 A2 next to the Gibbs
Paul
You got a few more but in your second guess you left out the 10.75 Schuler (I may be wrong about it being Schuler there is a Schuler in there but not 10.75) after I told you it was in there. The 500*460Weatherby is in there but you have it in the wrong spot
so we have

6/284, 338Win, 270Win, 300Win, ?( this is a current USA cartridge improved), ?(current Euro case), 416Rigby, ?(Euro), 416 Taylor, ?(Euro), 450Rigby, 50-110, 416sw(416/505), 505Gibbs, 500 A2(500 Weatherby), 404Jeffery, 338Lapua, ?( this is a current USA cartridge improved with the belt turned off)

The 10.75 something may be the 4th, a 10.75x68RWS. The 2nd may be a 7mm BooBoo

Vinyo you are correct the 4th one along in the new pic is a 10.75*68 the one in the pic is a Bertram case though. There is no 7mmBooBoo whatever that is.

Thanks although your link had an extra set of http: on the front

OK so the rest of the cases are
6mm Rem improved (AI?), 6.5*68, 11.2*72 Schuler,
10.75*68, 416 Weatherby improved belt turned off.
and well done to Paul H on the big bore forum for getting most of them right, more than I would have got.

head stamps as requested the 2 standing are 416sw(505Gibbs case), 500*Weatherby(460Weatherby case)
