Range is the big issue with tank rounds vs artillery rounds

Well you’re comparing apples to oranges here. Tanks have a far different battlefield role than artillery. Tanks are a direct fire weapons system meant for the front line in direct contact with the enemy. Artillery is indirect fire weapons meant to be miles behind the line and not in direct contact with enemy forces. Artillery does have direct fire capability. But it’s only meant for last resort defense if enemy forces have broken though the front and the artillery unit doesn’t have time to bug out.
