I don't have any of the short belted rounds. I "borrowed" this photo from CSAEOD's auction list. He says they were experimental, developed during the 50s and 60s for antitank weapon systems especially the 105 and 106mm recoiless types. That's all I know about them.

Sorry to revive an old thread but I'm new to BOCN. I am unable to open the photo of the 'short belted round' but have attached a photo of a case in my collection. Is this the 'short belted round'? The case is 2.5" (63.5mm) long, for a .50 projectile. Thanks for any info.

This is a German 13x64B for the aircraft MG 131 from 1941.
