'''12.7x108mm''' is a rifle cartridge designed in the 1930s as a heavy machine gun and anti-matériel rifle cartridge. It was adopted in 1935 by the Soviet Union and its satellite states, being used in pretty much all of the same roles as that of its Western counterpart, [[.50 BMG]]. Despite that, both cartridges are quite different in terms of dimensions, with the 12.7x108mm bearing a longer, thicker case, and using a different projectile.

The '''12.7x108mm''' is a heavy machine gun caliber developed in 1930 by the Soviet Union. It entered service in the Red Army and first saw action during the Winter War.

=== Real-life data ===
+
-
Developed to fulfill the same role as the American [[.50 BMG]], the 12.7x108mm caliber was primarily invented as a heavy machine gun round, for use on the ground such as machine guns or anti-aircraft cannons, or in aircraft mounted guns. It was later adopted as a long-range, anti-matériel caliber much like the .50 BMG.
+
-
Contrary to popular belief, '''12.7x108mm''' and '''.50 BMG''' differ in shape and weight, allowing the former to use different powder types and loads than its NATO counterpart. This misunderstanding led the Soviet-made caliber to even be nicknamed '''.51 caliber''' or '''.511 caliber''', which is incorrect.
+
The cartridge was first employed in DShK heavy machine gun, in 1938. The first anti-matériel rifle chambered in 12.7x108mm was the '''KSVK'''.  
-
The caliber is used by former Warsaw Pact countries nowadays, such as Russia, but also other countries like Hungary, Finland, India and more.
+
In the Mazes, due to their extreme power, as well as the resulting cost of both firearms and ammunition, weapons chambered in 12.7x108mm are typically reserved for threats of exceptional nature.

12.7x108mm is a rifle cartridge designed in the 1930s as a heavy machine gun and anti-matériel rifle cartridge. It was adopted in 1935 by the Soviet Union and its satellite states, being used in pretty much all of the same roles as that of its Western counterpart, .50 BMG. Despite that, both cartridges are quite different in terms of dimensions, with the 12.7x108mm bearing a longer, thicker case, and using a different projectile.

The cartridge was first employed in DShK heavy machine gun, in 1938. The first anti-matériel rifle chambered in 12.7x108mm was the KSVK.

In the Mazes, due to their extreme power, as well as the resulting cost of both firearms and ammunition, weapons chambered in 12.7x108mm are typically reserved for threats of exceptional nature.
