I don't really know why, perhaps where I dug it was different - I think it's a 30.06, but kinda grungy.

Just curious - thanks!
 

REM-UMC 30-06 SPRG

REM = Remington
UMC = Union Metallic Cartridge Company
SPRG = Springfield (Arms Manufacturer)
30-06 = 30 caliber round of 1906

Remington and UMC merged in 1912 and thus REM-UMC shells can date from 1912-1960 according to most cartridge sites.
