My guess is that it was used in a rifle with a tubular magazine. Hence the recessed primer - to avoid setting off rounds in the magazine by the pointy bullet.

What rifle, I have no idea. Need to know caliber and length of case at least. Base diameter and rim diameter would help.

Never seen that one before. Sorry, can't help you out on this one.

Looks like a really old round, will know (it's from his time).

PS: I posted your question on two military surplus forums I belong to. Maybe, they will know.

One person from another forum says..... "It looks a little like a 416 Rigby-ish, although that neck looks a little long". He requested measurements, including case, case neck, and projectile.
