just for funI'll give it a shot.

Case #1 looks like a standard 280 rem
Case #2 looks like it could be called a 280 gibbs
Case #3 looks more like a 7mm short mag

Just looking through a book and thought that #2 might be a 7mm Weatherby?

On second thought,the taper looks too steep for a 7x57.More research required.

Looking at the rim now, it looks like a 30-30, therefore making it a 7-30 waters. Maybe?
