- The 5.6×50mm Magnum cartridge and longside the 5.6×50mmR were developed in Germany as a legal hunting round for Roh deer up to a distance of 200 meters. The two cartridges are dimensionally and ballistically identical except that the Magnum version is rimless. Basically a 222 Remington Magnum with a 3mm longer body.
