Product Description
This inert 6.5×52R cartridge, headstamped DWM 518, is an excellent example of early 20th-century European military ammunition. The 6.5×52R was commonly used in rifles such as the Italian Carcano series and other bolt-action rifles across Europe, making it a key round for collectors and historical enthusiasts.
Manufactured by DWM (Deutsche Waffen- und Munitionsfabriken), the 518 headstamp indicates a specific lot and production series, highlighting the round’s authenticity and provenance. DWM cartridges are particularly prized for their precise manufacturing and historical significance in both military and collector markets.
This round has been professionally rendered completely inert, containing no primer, propellant, or projectile, making it fully safe for display, handling, or educational purposes. The cartridge retains its original brass finish and clear headstamp, making it ideal for collectors seeking historically accurate ammunition examples.
Perfect for display boards, calibre comparison collections, or as part of a larger European military cartridge collection, this DWM 518 6.5×52R inert cartridge offers both visual appeal and historical interest. Its rimmed design and distinctive European calibre make it a standout piece for enthusiasts of pre-WWII small-arms ammunition.
