12.17×42mm RF

The 12.17×42mm rimfire and its slightly longer but still interchangeable variant, the 12.17×44mm rimfire, are rifle cartridges adopted by the armed forces of Sweden and Norway in 1867 and 1871, respectively. They were primarily chambered in the Remington M1867 rolling block rifle, which became the standard firearm for both countries.
