Hello. Do any of you have a 6x29.5Rmm Stahl? Turn of the century black powder cartridge. Similar to 25-20. I have a drilling that I think uses this cartridge. I would love to see a drawing or photo of actual round. Thank you! Gary

I have a little information on this cartridge - very little actually but alas , no picture.

Your cartridge was made from ca. 1890 - ca.1925 , for the Stahl single shot rifle and combination guns. Hence the name , although it is also called a Tesching . Loaded by RWS / Uttendoeffer.

Also have case measurement and a line drawing if you want . I can scan and email the pic to you easier than attempting to make it appear here :-(

You are welcome Gary. Only help its usefull - those obscure Euro calibers are pretty hard to research , but a friend of mine wrote two volumes on European Sporting Cartridges 15-odd years ago , and thats about the only recent , English-language referance I know of .

European Sporting Cartridges by W. Brad Dixon , Amory Publications ISBN -0-939683-10-5 and -0-939683-18-0
