the profile is definitely an Italian Carcano but I'm not expert enough to tell model, year, markings, etc etc...
they came in two calibers, the earlier 6.5x52 mannlicher carcano was the more prolifically used. it has an odd diameter size compared to other 6.5 milometer rounds where the bullet diameter is .268 inches while other 6.5mm rounds are .264 inches.
similarly the later production 7.35mm carcano round is .299 inches and most 30 caliber rounds are are .308-.312. these odd bullet sizes makes it difficult to find reloading components and as there are very few companies still making the ammunition for them, you just about HAVE TO reload to keep them fed.
