ID this brass

[pagedeveloper]

Good Day...

OK.. I hope that I am in the correct spot. I recieved a large amount of brass today, and it had in there a couple that I could not even start to ID. One of them, I think is 06 brass. The other, I am completely stumped. On the bottom of the brass is states
DEN 43.

OK.. I have posted some new pic's of the brass that I am looking for info on. Also the other one is still there.
I believe that one is 06, but it could be 308.

Unless you post some dimensions or pictures there is no way we can tell what you have.

30 cal carbine on the straight wall??? Real hard to tell on the other.....25-06???

Nothing on the head stamp?

Measurements and better pics would help

.30 Carbine was my guess.

You'd think a page developer would take better pics...

What's the case mouth diameter (inner)?

[pagedeveloper]

I write code, not play on a camera... Better pic's to follow..

[pagedeveloper]

It is not 30 carbine, it is a large mouth shell. It looks almost like a 40 S&W with an extension. It is about an 1 in 1/2 tall. It has almost a 1/2 inch opening at the mouth. It looks like a 44-40, but it is not straight case.

Show us the headstamps.

Headstamps?
den 43 is 30/06
44-40 is slightly tapered --

[pagedeveloper]

That is the strangest 06 that I have seen. I think of 06 being a larger 223 style case. Not one that is almost straight.

Could the straight wall case be a 38 special? In some old S&W revolvers that were used in Britain they had 38S&W revolvers. When the revolvers were retired they finished boring out the cylinder to 38 Special so the rear of the case bulges when firing and sometimes splits.

[pagedeveloper]

The case is about the size of a 40 S&W so 38 is way to small for this one. I know that a case can expand, but well this does not appear to have any bulge at all. It is straight walled about 1/2 way up, and then has a slight taper inwards and then goes up. It is over 1/2 inch opening at the top. It says DEN 43 on the bottom. I know that usually mean 06, but this can not be an 06.

Someone said it might be a 44-40, but all the other cases that I have that say 44-40 are are straight wall all the way. So I am confused....
