9.3x72 R
This originally black powder cartridge, apparently German, appeared on the market in the late 19th century, successively in three variants with small variations in size and shape. This was the reason for its standardization by the German Standardization Commission as early as 1909. The standardized cartridges used to be abbreviated Norm. or just N. The cartridge is still manufactured by RWS and S&B. The 12.5 g bullet from RWS has a muzzle velocity of 615 m/sec, S&B labels the same bullet at 595 m/sec. Pictured here is a cartridge made by the ammunition factory in Pov. Bystrica at the time when it was a branch of Zbrojovka Brno. On the right is the 7,92x57 cartridge. Photo by.
