Without the ncessary dimensions it would be a wild guess.
My first guess would be 7,65x53(54).

Case length of the 7.65 Argentine Mauser is 2.09 "
Bore is .312 - .313 "
That is most likely what you have.
Thanks,
Ben

7.62 x 54 russian is an entirely different beast than the 7.65 mauser. If you can you need to give neck length, diameter at case mouth, at case neck, at shoulder and length from base to shoulder. That will give a pretty good idea what others can look at in the various books giving cartrige dimensions.

I looked in my box of cartridges and found a 7.65 Argentine shell and thats what it is. Barrel has sights and a exc. barrel, would be a great cast bullet shooter, Anyone want it, I would trade for a M1 Garand barrel, Thanks- Smokemjoe
