As well as the AP round, SmK tracers and PmK phosphorus incendiary rounds also exist, although these may have been developed for the TuF machine gun rather than the anti-tank rifle. However, both are extremely rare.

In the early 1930s Britain bought newly made rounds from Sweden and also reloaded WWI German rounds as part of the research that eventually led to the .5 inch Stanchion rifle and then the .55 inch Boys. The British reloaded rounds are identified by coloured rings around the lower part of the case.
