First one on left is API
Second from right is 647g FMJ
Third from right is 750g Barnes mono


second one from left is to long and does not match a 50BMG case profile as does the one on far right
 
second one from the left and the one on the far right appear to be the russian 12.7x108
Here is the US 12.7x99 side by side with the 12.7x108

Are the two longer ones, far right and second from left a 12.7x108?
 
The one you have marked API is not that. I’m think a SLAP maybe
 
OK let’s try this again.
Second on the left with the black tip is definitely bigger ,I will take another picture and put it on the right

Also the one on the far right case length is different

OK, since you didn't read my post, with the included picture, where I identified those two cartridges, the one one the far right in your appended photo is 12.7x108 russian. The other on appears it might be 12.7x108.

Thank you for the input. I tried separating the two Russian rounds (which I didn’t even know different until you pointed it out thank you)

Maybe I made it more confusing.
