13 mm Dreyse

The charge for jehlovku Dreyse established in the prussian army in 1841 (somewhere also 1840). The design hub is obvious from the diagram. Basically it was a apcr shot, which was the reason for less accuracy against RU předovkám system Lorenz. Shot of 31.2 g muzzle velocity about 300 m/sec. To the right is the bullet 7,92 x 57, photo by author.
