Back in early 2018, I decided to make some dummy anti-tank rifle cartridges. As you might
figure, originals are expensive and the German 7,92x94mm had a tear gas pellet in the bullet
nose.
The German 7,92x94 mm was developed from the old WW1 Mauser 13.2 anti tank cartridge,
neck down and rimless and used in the PzB 37 single shot weapon it had a 225gr bullet at
around 4,000 fps
The second cartridge was the Polish 7,92x107mm cartridge that was used in the bolt action
KB wz 35 rifle, which fired a 225gr bullet at 4180 fps (barrel life 300rds)
Actual dimensions are available for both cartridges and I made them from aluminum stock,
but did use an original 7,92 bullet for the German cartridge52102
