The Identification of All Aspects
of Ammunition

Where to use it:

  • Identification of headstamps with all related information
  • Identification of manufacturers with all related information
  • Identification of colour codes with all related information
  • Identification of calibers with all related information
  • Identification of cartridges with all related information
  • Calibre identification on firearms by measuring the chamber cast.

Quite a few questions arise during the identification of a cartridge:

  • What calibre is the cartridge?
  • What is the meaning of the colour code on the bullet tip?
  • What is the head stamp telling us?
  • Who made it?
  • When was it made?
  • Where is it coming from?
  • What type of ammunition is it? ....... and more

To answer these and all the other questions usually takes time and requires detailed literature. The determination of the specific caliber is also a difficult task if the cartridge in question is not in one of the obvious calibers. Literature about color codes is rare and spread across many books and publications. There are a multitude of headstamps that require also detailed literature and finally we need a database of the manufacturers of ammunition and components.

CartWinPro unites all these tasks into a single software. The keys to success are the

  • Headstamp database
  • Manufacturer database
  • Calibre database
  • Color Code database
  • Collection database

and the easy access to the relevant data with easy to use search entries.

The following databases with information fields are available:

and the meaning of them in conjunction with the calibre.

All databases can be searched on every field and information displayed. The search fields can easily be combined by the user to his specific needs. Just double click on the available field and it will be part of the search.
