About the 7.35x51mm Carcano Cartridge
Introduced by Italy in 1938, the 7.35x51mm Carcano was developed as an improvement over the earlier 6.5×52mm Carcano cartridge. Its larger-diameter bullet was intended to improve terminal performance while maintaining manageable recoil. Although the cartridge had a relatively short military service life, it remains popular among collectors and enthusiasts of historic Italian firearms.
Because original rifles are uncommon and commercial production is limited, finding current-production ammunition for these firearms can be challenging. Steinel helps support the continued use of these historic rifles by producing modern ammunition for the 7.35x51mm chambering.
