The 6x47mm (6mm ATZL) is a centerfire, bottlenecked cartridge designed for precision long-range shooting. It was developed by the German gunsmith, Thomas M.

The 6x47mm has a bullet diameter of .243 inches (6.17mm) and a case length of 47mm.The cartridge was designed with the goal of achieving high levels of accuracy and consistency, as well as long-range performance. It is capable of firing high-BC bullets at high velocities, resulting in excellent long-range accuracy and terminal ballistics.

C.I.P.
The Commission internationale permanente pour l'épreuve des armes à feu portatives ("Permanent International Commission for the Proof of Small Arms" – commonly abbreviated as C.I.P.) is an international organisation which sets standards for safety testing of firearms. (The word portatives ("portable") in the name refers to the fact the C.I.P. tests small arms almost exclusively; it is ordinarily omitted from the English translation of the name.) As of 2015, its members are the national governments of 14 countries, of which 11 are European Union member states. The C.I.P. safeguards that all firearms and ammunition sold to civilian purchasers in member states are safe for the users.
To achieve this, all such firearms are first proof tested at C.I.P. accredited Proof Houses. The same applies for cartridges; at regular intervals, cartridges are tested against the C.I.P. pressure specifications at the ammunition manufacturing plants and at C.I.P. accredited Proof Houses.
