The 30.5 cm Ring Kanone L/22 was a 30.5 cm 22 caliber long Krupp Ring Kanone. It was a rifled breech loader built-up gun with a Krupp cylindroprismatic horizontal sliding breech. The gun became famous when it was exhibited at the 1873 Vienna World's Fair. It did not enter service, but did lead to the development of the 30.5 cm MRK L/22.
