Product Description
The 6.5x53R M93 Mannlicher cartridge, produced by the renowned Patronenfabrik Keller & Co. (K&C) in Hirtenberg, Austria, is a rare and significant piece of military ammunition history. This cartridge was designed for the M93 Mannlicher rifle, which became the standard-issue service rifle for the Austrian-Hungarian Empire during the late 19th and early 20th centuries. Known for its accuracy and reliability, the Mannlicher rifle and its 6.5x53R cartridge played an important role in the military history of the time.
The 6.5x53R cartridge is a rimmed, bottlenecked round designed for use in the Mannlicher straight-pull bolt-action rifle. The combination of manageable recoil and high velocity made the round effective for both military and hunting purposes. This particular example is produced by K&C, a company that was known for its high-quality ammunition manufacturing in Austria.
Fully deactivated, this round contains no primer, powder, or propellant, making it entirely safe for handling and display. The brass casing and bullet are in excellent condition, with the appropriate headstamp clearly visible.
Perfect for collectors of vintage ammunition, military historians, or enthusiasts of early 20th-century firearms, the INERT 6.5x53R M93 Mannlicher cartridge is a valuable addition to any collection. Its historical significance and craftsmanship make it a standout collectible.
