An Entity of Type : dbkwik:resource/IRCSUQkPFNSQ19SarJ-CSw==, within Data Space : 134.155.108.49:8890 associated with source dataset(s)

A lengthened version of the round, the 12.17x44mm RF, was adopted by the Norwegian armed forces in 1871. But the two cartridges were interchangeable, and could thus be fired from the same weapons. The round, nominally known as 4 Linjers (actual bore diameter 4.1 Swedish decimal lines or 3.88 Norwegian decimal lines, that is 0.41 Swedish or 0.388 Norwegian inches), had a lead bullet 12.615mm (0.497 in) in diameter, with the diameter of the bore, measured between the lands, being 12.17mm (0.479 inches). It used a copper case.

  • A lengthened version of the round, the 12.17x44mm RF, was adopted by the Norwegian armed forces in 1871. But the two cartridges were interchangeable, and could thus be fired from the same weapons. The round, nominally known as 4 Linjers (actual bore diameter 4.1 Swedish decimal lines or 3.88 Norwegian decimal lines, that is 0.41 Swedish or 0.388 Norwegian inches), had a lead bullet 12.615mm (0.497 in) in diameter, with the diameter of the bore, measured between the lands, being 12.17mm (0.479 inches). It used a copper case. In Swedish service the standard cartridge used a lead projectile (shaped like a Minié ball) weighing 24 gr (370 g). The muzzle velocity fired through a 955mm (37.6 in) rifle barrel was 386 m/s (1,266 ft/s), with a muzzle energy of 1,788 J (1,319 ft/lbf). Fired through a 460mm (18.11 in) carbine barrel the muzzle velocity was 340 m/s (1,115 ft/s), with a muzzle energy of 1,387 J (1,023 ft/lbf). In Norwegian service early rounds had a cast lead projectile weighting 5.85 kvintin (22.8 gr/352 g) and 1 kvintin (3.89 gr/60 g) of gunpowder. Later rounds had a pressed lead projectile weighting 6 kvintin (23.4 gr/361 g) and the gunpowder load was increased to 1.05 kvintin (4.09 gr/63 g). There was also a blank round - an ordinary cartridge case loaded with 54 g (3.50 gr) of gunpowder and closed with a cardboard or cork disc.
