It certainly
does look like a .5 Browning to me, and I have lots of them on my shelf
Other cartridges loaded with bullets of similar size and shape were: 12.7mm Russian, 13mm T-Gewehr, 13.2mm Hotchkiss. However, the .50 Browning is the closest match (and by far the most likely in W Europe on the basis of the number used).
