Talk:14.5×114mm

message: The diagram shows alpha = 44d30m00.0s (which is equal to 44.5 degrees) but then the text after indicates alpha/2 = 22.5 degrees. I don't know which one is correct.Totensiebush (talk) 14:53, 7 July 2015 (UTC)

message: Why does it mention the weight of the bullet alone, but not the weight of the entire round? It should mention the weight of the entire round, with bullet, casing, and powder, somewhere in this article. 71.112.219.8 (talk) 06:20, 2 December 2008 (UTC)
replies: text: Why? The reason for stating the bullet weight is for kinetic energy calculations. The bullet is the only part of the cartridge that hits the target. Roger (talk) 07:13, 2 December 2008 (UTC)
replies: text: For instance for calculating how many cartridges you can carry with a 20 kg limit, or how much 100 rounds would weigh. BP OMowe (talk) 10:18, 31 March 2015 (UTC)

message: I also believe the "KKV" round is fictional and have found no credible sources mentioning anything about such a round. I have removed the mention of it.  — Preceding unsigned comment added by Gewsy (talk • contribs) 13:54, 15 January 2013 (UTC)

message: When one tries to make a link in beta, or do a search for "14.5mm", it just comes up with a single rifle meant for this cartridge (the PTRS-41 anti-tank rifle), and some American cartridge made from a necked up .50BMG and called the "14.5mm JDJ". It seems to me that when you say "14.5mm", most people think of the 14.5x114mm cartridge first, and the heavy machine gun firing it second, so shouldn't the search term bring you to this page, and then redirect you if you want to read about the anti-tank rifle? I mean, the only way to directly find this page if you didn't come across the link on another page, or to create a link to it, is to type in "14.5x114mm". But as for me, I had no idea of the cartridge length. I wanted to find out what it was! I think "14.5mm" ought to direct you to this page, since that's what most people are probably looking for, and the average person doesn't know the full designation. If they'd like to read about the KPV machine gun or PTSR-41, or even the super-rare "14.5mm JDJ", they can find a link to it here. I mean, "14.5mm" refers more to a cartridge than a weapon. .45Colt 00:25, 19 August 2015 (UTC)
thread_title:  Search directs for "14.5mm"; can't link to this page without full designation 

message: Of course, the list of ammunition variants is probably not exhaustive, but this article links to the Iranian shaher rifle, where the lead mentions that it can "penetrate 50mm armour plate" this seems beyond the variants mentioned in this article even if it doesn't specify a range, so either that Iranian ammo needs mentioning here as it seemingly surpasses all listed, or the article on the shaher needs cleaning for bragging and BS.
