Long Range & High Power Cartridge Collection

thingiverse

A collection of high power, long range, and high velocity cartridges from WWI to the present day is being assembled in 1:1 scale. The current assortment contains cartridges arranged in ascending order by caliber. The collection currently includes: 7.62 x 54 R 30-06 Springfield 338 Lapua Magnum 408 Chay Tac 416 Barrett 50 BMG 14.5 x 114 Russian 20 x 138 B German FLAK Historic cartridges have been added to the collection, bringing the total number of cartridges to: 8 x 50 mm R Mannlicher 8 x 57 mm IS (Infanterie Spitz/ 8mm Mauser) 45-70 Government In addition, three anti-tank cartridges from WWI and early WWII have also been added. 7.92 x 107 mm Maroszek 7.92 x 94 mm 13 x 92 HR mm (German Tankgewehr) The collection now includes an engraved version of the .50 cal as well as links to chain together multiple .50s for use in a belt. The cases and projectiles are designed as separate pieces, allowing them to be painted individually and attached/detached at will. All cartridges are scaled accurately, with outer dimensions identical to their real-world counterparts. However, some cartridges have had the wall strength of their cases reduced due to printing limitations. In these cases, the back of the bullet has been shrunk in diameter slightly. Cartridges do not include primers, indicating that they are not functional. Primers may be added as separate pieces at a later time. This collection is marked "work in progress" because no collection is ever truly complete! The creator welcomes contributions from others, including new and interesting cartridges with accompanying dimension references. However, please note that pistol cartridges and those with calibers less than or equal to 5.56 NATO (.223 Remington) will not be considered for inclusion in this collection.
