The 6.5×45mm MASSOR, also known as 6.5×45mm Valduvian or simply 6.5×45mm, is a rimless bottlenecked intermediate rifle cartridge developed in Valduvia during the 1950s. It has been the standard service rifle chambering for the Valduvian Workers' Army since 1956, and was originally designed to be used in the TBA assault rifle. The cartridge was adopted as the standard for MASSOR upon the organization's establishment in 1999, and now enjoys widespread use among the armed forces of its member states. It is commonly used in the Lielstraupe TŠ-90 and TBA assault rifles, as well as the TBA light machine gun.
