Question about some ammo

[93turbohatch]

I have some ammo that IS Stamped FN 50. Does any know what caliber it is? Almost the same size as .303.

FN 8mm Mauser ammo maybe? You should measure the diameter of the bullet with some calipers, and look up the reading on a reloading website. Or something.

It's a touch "smaller" in diameter than 303 and the cartridge is a little shorter from neck to head than a 303 round too.

This says it may be Bren .303 MG ammo.
