Warning! Notes: HISTORICAL NOTES - In the standard Austrian military pistol cartridge for the Steyr Model 1912 auto pistol, the case is approximately 23mm long, as compared to the 9mm Luger, which is 19mm. This cartridge is very similar to the 9mm Bergmann-Bayard and these two are often confused. However, 9mm Steyr ammunition is usually found with a nickel-jacketed bullet. The 9mm Bayard case is slightly longer. GENERAL COMMENTS - Bullet diameter is the same as the 9mm Luger and one can use Luger bullets for reloading. Any standard load for the 9mm Luger or 38 Automatic will work in the Steyr pistol. Fiocchi of Italy still loads this round. |
