IDnumber 76 Caliber 7,62x51 Model 7,62 mm Sk Ptr 10 PPRJ Projectile form - Projectile weight 8,2 Gram Projectile material Tombac plated steel jacket, Tungsten and aluminum core. Projectile type Armour piercing Colour markings Black tip V0 mps 960 mps V0 fps - Propellant - Propellant weight Gram - Propellant weight Grain - The projectile has a hard metal core that gives the ammunition a very good penetration on hard targets. Conventional AP ammunition uses hard steel as a penetrator. The Tungsten material has a much higher density, which makes the penetrator much heavier than a steel penetrator of the same size. The projectile penetrates at least 15 mm steel at 300 meters or 20 mm of steel at 100 meters. The cartridge on the picture is stamped as made 1984. That is a truth with modification. The case is made then, but the ammunition is built 1987.
