7.92 isn’t .303 British. It’s the even older 8mm Mauser. They cut down the 8mm Mauser cartridge to make the 7.92mm Kurz to feed the StG44.

You didn't translate it to a like Brit/American caliber. That's what I was going for.

Perhaps you could post an analogous English system caliber in a common round.

Interesting to know about the 8mm. Were they ammunition left over from WWI?
