The first fire test of Horizon's Lord (2020)
The 12.7x114 "HL" cartridge can be used as a more efficient alternative to the 14.5x114 cartridge by simply replacing the barrels in appropriate anti-material rifles or machine guns. The set of combat characteristics of the cartridge 12.7x114 "HL" significantly exceeds 14.5x114 (up to 35%), has a smaller recoil momentum, allows the use of shorter barrels and reduces the total weight of the weapon up to 40%.
The bullet maintains supersonic speed over the distance of 2700 m.
Combined (simultaneous) equipment of the cartridge 12.7x114 "HL" with gunpowder with different combustion progression allows to reach 1100 m/s ar a match bullet weight of 750 gr and a barrel length of 1200 mm, and maintain the supersonic speed of the bullet at a distance of more than 3100 m.
Muzzle velocity - 1000 m/s (at a barrel length of 1000 mm)
Technical accuracy - less than 0,5 MOA
