The 11.35 mm Schouboe or .45 Schouboe was an experimental centerfire pistol cartridge produced in 1902. The lightweight bullet was a steel jacketed wooden plug with an aluminum disk protecting the base. Muzzle velocity was 1600 feet per second. Accuracy was poor, and the blow-back pistol chambered for this cartridge was unsuccessful.[1]
