Japanese 37x165R case for use in the Type 94 anti-tank gun and the Type 98 tank gun. Projectile weight 700g, muzzle velocity 700 m/s.

You can see it in the pic below, from my Ammo Photo Gallery. It fired the same projectiles as the 37x134R next to it.

Maybe some of the BOCN members going along to Beltring, which is coming up soon, can check out the prices for Japanese 37mm material for you ?
