Overview

The 105x617mm (4.1 inches), also known as 105×617 R, is a common, NATO-standard tank gun cartridge used in 105mm guns such as those derived from the Royal Ordnance L7. The 105×617 R cartridge was originally developed from the 84 mm (3.3 in) caliber Ordnance QF 20-pounder 84x618R cartridges as part of the development of the L7 105 mm rifled gun. Our high-explosive antitank cartridges and tracers are versatile and impactful. Intended for use against armored targets. They have the dual role capability of killing dismounted infantry by blast and fragmentation and in destroying lightly armored and non-armored vehicles and bunkers. They can also incapacitate ground troops by blast and fragmentation.?The fins are threaded to receive a tracer and are proven better penetration than M456.
