    Default 7,92x94mm and 7,92x107mm pre ww2 anti tank cartridges

    Photos show some examples of early pre WW2 anti-tank cartriges

    first photo shows 7,92x57mm, 7,92x94mm, 7,92x107mm Polish, 50 cal BMG and 55 cal Boys

    the 7,92x94mm German and 7,92x107mm Polish are exact dummy cartridges

    these cartridges fired a 7,92mm bullet around 245 grs at 4,000 fpsdscn2527.jpg

    Is that 7.92x57 a SMKH round? I have a mint box of that from 1940 in stripper clips. Issued to riflemen in case they come up against light armored targets. True Krupp Widia (Tungsten Carbide) cores. Things changed quickly as the war went on.

    togar, the 7,92x57mm German cartridge is a 1938 dated ball cartridge.

    Interesting that the Soviets made-up and tested similar cartridges but used the 12,7x108mm during the early war years

    The 7.92 x 94mm was used in the single shot PZB. Had one in the shop years ago. Collector ammo ran $15 each. Turned it into an 8mm Rem Mag by means on a chamber insert when a guy bought the thing. Said he was going to use it for ground hogs.
    Spelling and grammar count!
