I believe they are 6x.75mm Th x .520 Long. That is the Tresso number that is out of stock at the Possible Shop yet. I wish I had bought more before.
You need to check the thread size. The Italian revolvers used two different sizes. The old ones were 6.75 and the newer were 5.5x9.
Treso should have them or VTI Gun Parts.
