history

Introduced in 1891, the 6.5 Carcano cartridge quickly gained recognition for its balanced performance, offering good accuracy and moderate recoil. It became a standard issue for the Italian military and saw action in various conflicts, including World War I and World War II. Despite its historical significance, the 6.5 Carcano cartridge eventually fell out of favor as military technology evolved, but its legacy endures in the annals of firearms history.

In developing this load, we achieved adequate accuracy with the shorter barreled M91 Calvary Carbine out to 200 yards. Though, we anticipate those who use Carcano models with longer barrels will achieve greater consistency, accuracy and velocity.

Word of warning

Ensure your Carcano is safe to fire. We highly recommend having a competent gunsmith inspect your firearm before shooting it. Inspect each cartridge before firing, and wear appropriate safety equipment (glasses, ear protection etc.)

    Overall good shipping speed. Tad expensive, but when it comes down to it, this is a small operation with overhead and shipping costs, so not the end of the world. Bought 10 boxes. Shot 9 rounds so far, as accurate as I could ever be. Uses PPU brass. Overall happy to feed these guns after years of ammo shortage neglect

  5. JOHN PHIPPS

    Excellent ammunition. Great quality. Made the old Carcano roar to life once more!

  6. Rodney Trowbridge

    I definitely recommend Milsurp Munitions! They are very friendly and knowledgeable! Shipping was timely and packaged well. Thank you for making ammo that is impossible or extremely difficult to find!

  7. wrenfrow1973
