This is a list of firearm cartridges which have bullets in the 5.00 to 5.99 mm (0.197 to 0.236 in) caliber range. Length refers to the cartridge case length. OAL refers to the overall length of the cartridge.
The Sokol-1 guided shell is fired from the 125 mm main gun, it borrowed design from the 152mm artillery shell 3OF75 Santimetr-M and both have very similar appearance, but with an added shaped charge cap into its design similar to the M712 Copperhead, intended to defeat heavily armoured targets.
The .17 Remington is based on the .223 Remington case necked down to .172 in (4.37 mm), with the shoulder moved back. [5] [6]Extremely high initial velocity (over 4,000 ft/s 1,200 m/s), flat trajectory and very low recoil are the .17 Remington's primary attributes.
Later French headstamps mark the 1-digit Quarter of the year of production and 2-digit Year at the 12-o'clock position (e.g. Q-YY), the letter code for the metal supplier for the case at the 3-o'clock position, the cartridge caliber and model at the 6-o'clock position, and the manufacturer at the 9-o'clock position.
The .40 S&W CAN duplicate this performance. The .41 AE uses 0.410-inch (10.4 mm) bullets, whereas the .40 S&W uses 0.400-inch (10.2 mm) bullets. However, as it lacks the backing of ammunition manufacturers in making .410 caliber bullets suited for semiautomatic pistols, the .41 AE has not achieved widespread popularity. [7] [8]
Following the success of the .17 HMR, the .17 Hornady Mach 2 was introduced in early 2004. The .17 HM2 is based on the .22 LR (slightly shorter in case length) case necked down to .17 caliber using the same bullet as the HMR but at a velocity of approximately 2,100 feet per second (640 m/s) in the 17-grain (1.1 g) polymer tip loading.
In "Long Road to Redemption Part 1", seven returning non-winners competed outside using coal forges. One is eliminated before they go inside for testing, and one is eliminated after testing. The remaining five contestants are given 2 days in their home forges to make the "perfect chopper," after which a third contestant is eliminated.
The Close Quarter Battle Receiver (CQBR) [5] is a replacement upper receiver for the M4A1 carbine developed by the US Navy.. The CQBR features a 10.3 in (262 mm) length barrel (similar to the Colt Commando short-barreled M16 variants of the past) which makes the weapon significantly more compact, thus making it easier to use in, and around, vehicles and in tight, confined spaces.
