The 5.8x42mm (also known as 5.8x42mm DBP87 and 5.8mm Chinese) is a small rifle caliber developed in 1987 by the People's Republic of China, suited for assault rifles and light machine guns. It is a surprisingly powerful round for its size, though it is also relatively rare. It is considered a high-tier caliber in Mazeworld.
