Those rounds look to be to large for a .223 (m16), look more like a sweadish 6.5x55 or other mauser round due to the elongated bullet..maybe 8mm or such.

Clean up the back real good and see if you can scan the back for a photo. still real nice day of diggin.

You know your bullets 3RINGER, thanks, the headstamp says "SBP M.Sch 6.5 x 54"

6,5x54 Mannlicher-Schoenauer

The 6,5x54 Mannlicher-Schoenauer cartridge is a civil version of an old military round. Greece decided in 1903 to use this rimless version of the rimmed 6,5x53R Mannlicher round, used since 1892 with the armies of Netherlands and Romania. The round was used in a bolt-action rifle, constructed by Ritter von Mannlicher, called "Mod. 1903".

Thanks for the close up, That round was made popular due to some hunters over in Africa..great ballistics on it. Also did well for the hunters over this way (deer / moose up north).
