No cartridge or case is shown. The rifle is said to be a .50 caliber. It might be chambered for the 12.7x108 Soviet cartridge.

Every serious, yes serious, prepper/gun enthusiast should have a used 50 cal bmg barrel in their inventory along with a hard copy of the plans to build a bolt action 50 cal rifle. Having a garage machine shop and the supplies to build homebrew weapons would be a plus.
While I am on this subject. Hard copies of all the dimensioned part(s) drawings for your favorite weapons is a good idea also.
And yes as noted the welding on the OP gun leaves something to be desired.

It wouldbe interesting to see the bolt. What kind of lugs for locking the breech does it have?
