6.5x55mm Swedish M/94 PPRJ M41 armor piercing with core made of tungsten. 18cm squared at 100 meters for accuracy.
By no means sniper ammo but was specifically made for better capability against hard targets.
Its been mentioned that penetration at 100 meters is 140 mm of concrete, 17mm of HB 500 steel armor and 28mm of HB 130 steel plate

what year were these produced? Bet it has quiet the penetration. The swedes were one of the early countries to crack the metallurgist code on alloys.
