Originally a black powder German target and hunting ammunition. The charge was created between 1878 and 1882 and was later processed by smokeless dust. The 9 g projectile has a muzzle velocity of 545 m/sec. The photographed charge with a T3 match was made by Považské strojárne, Považská Bystrica, Czechoslovakia (now the Slovak Republic so as not to touch anyone). On the right is a 7.62 x 39 round, photo by the author.
