Some old school bullets here, cupronickel plated mild steel jacketed FMJ round nose .30 cal bullets.  They stick to a magnet hence the steel part (straight cupronickel is not magnetic, there were 96 originally, I sectioned one of these with a file, can confirm it’s a mild steel jacket which wasn’t uncommon in the early part of the 20th century). 

As best I can tell these were expressly designed around the 7.5 Swiss cartridge back in the day, even more specifically the older and rarer 7.5x53.5mm - same bore as the more common 7.5x55 so it doesn’t matter really.  These would work fine in any .30 cal, they do read on my calipers as being closer to .307 than .308, I do recall some 7.5 Swiss pills were .306”, but folks do reload .308” cal bullets in 7.5 Swiss all the time and these will work with the Swiss or any standard 30.  And ought to penetrate darn near anything.  They’re really neat, but I don’t foresee myself using them any time soon so 30 bucks and they’re yours.
