The Swiss 7.5mm center-fire revolver cartridge, also known as 7.5x23mmR, was used militarily in the 1882 and 1882/1929 revolvers of the Swiss army, as well as in Swiss civilian revolvers of the 'bulldog' type. The case is of brass; the heeled bullet is of a hard lead alloy, fully jacketed and coated externally with a wax lubricant. Originally it was loaded with 0.7 grams (11 gr) of black powder.
