As a person living in a country with strict gun laws i wanted to print some ammo in real scale just to get a better idea how big bullets and different type of ammo really is.
I made few of the more commonly known bullet types using as close as possible measures to the real world counterparts to make these as accurate as possible.
Includes:
5.56x45 NATO
7.62x39
7.92x57 Mauser
7.65×21 Parabellum
9x19 Parabellum
10mm AUTO
30-06 Springfield
40 S&W
45 ACP
308 Winchester
338 Lapua Magnum
500 S&W Magnum (The tip is suppose to be flat, but i made it round instead)
50 BMG (this one is simply scaled up 30-06 to accurate measures)
14.5x114 (.57 Cal Anti-Tank)
NOTE: Some tip shapes might not be 100% accurate as some bullets have a slight flat tip, however this should not effect the actual measurements and size at all.
Rafts: Yes
Supports: No
Resolution: 0.10mm
Infill: 0%
Notes:
Raft: Yes (might not be needed, but for myself it always results in better prints.)
Infill: 0% (with 2 shells it seems to be sturdy enough)
Print Temp: 210c (PLA) (I tried 220c but the tip melted lot more)
Print speed: 30 - 50mm/s
Print time: 20 - 60min (per item)
Note: Top Layer fill should be set to as low as possible to prevent a blob forming onto the tip.

Printed the .50 BMG with a bronze filament for the casing, and a silk copper for the bullet. My slicer settings were sub-optimal, so there is some zitting and layer inconsistencies. Overall, very eye catching.
