    Also, measure the case length of the cartridge in the picture at the top. If I am correct in my assumption it should measure approximately 50.8mm - 51mm. And ofcourse measure the projectile diameter as close as possible to the case neck. The overall length of the cartridge should be around 75.4mm.

    @Allizdog
    Case length: 50.65 mm
    Projectile diameter close to case neck: 6.60 mm
    Cartridge OAL: 76.20 mm

    Close enough to to call it 6.5 Arisaka you think ?

    Yes. It must be a 6.5 Arisaka being Japanese and of that era and dimensions.
