the big one in the pic with the .45 is a .50 cal. You would probably need to provide accurate measurements with a caliper to get accurate IDs on the others

OK thanks. I'll try to make some better photos with measurements. I couldn't quite get the lighting right.

The round nose bullets are probably Italian 6.5 Carcano, The second pic looks like it will be US 30-06 and German 8mm Mauser. But I'm just guessing based on the common bullets that are likely to turn up near Italian battlefields....

Measurements on length and diameter with a digital caliper will get a positive ID
