The "large cone" is the main (tapered) body of the chamber.

NOT to be confused with the "short cone" which is part of the "throat / leade" at the front of the chamber.

I don't have anything on that particular gauge close at hand, but, I suspect it is part of a set used to gauge wear / eccentricities etc. in rifle and machine-gun barrels.

Any advances?
