Caliber: 6.5x50mm Japanese

The 6.5x50mm Arisaka, also known as the 6.5 Japanese, was developed in the late 19th century for the Imperial Japanese Army. This cartridge was the standard infantry round for much of the early 20th century and saw extensive use in both World Wars. Known for its mild recoil, accuracy, and relatively flat trajectory, the 6.5×50 remains in use among collectors and shooters of surplus military rifles, particularly the Type 38 Arisaka.
