This is a list of firearm cartridges which have bullets that are 14 millimetres (0.55 in) to 14.99 millimetres (0.590 in) in caliber.
The most famous military cartridge in the 14 mm caliber span is probably the Soviet/Russian 14.5×114mm cartridge, initially developed for various anti-tank rifles before WWII, and later on re-adopted as a heavy machine gun cartridge which continues to see widespread use in the 21st century.
