Description

Bullet for hunting purposes with a continuous soft lead core. The invention refers to a G; - Shot for hunting purposes, which has a continuous soft lead core which is encased by a copper jacket, and that with a second made of hard metal existing coat is equipped, which surrounds part of the floor.

In a known projectile of this type, the soft lead core is at the front Constricted end. The copper jacket drawn over the soft lead core is proportionate thick-walled. At the point of the above-mentioned constriction, for example, -Wall thickness of 1.6 mm. There is a partial jacket around this strong copper jacket made of a harder copper alloy (tombak), the wall of which follows @ -orn tapered and which overall has a smaller thickness than the underlying copper jacket. The leading part of the bullet is not included in the second jacket.

The known projectile is therefore a two-jacket projectile with tip reinforcement, whereby the guide is transferred to the inner jacket. One of those The projectile structure has the disadvantage that the strong copper jacket .the .through the constriction Conditional small amount of lead on the bullet tip limits and inhibits its deformation or upsetting acts. On the other hand, the ring can be made of the harder metal Do not counteract the expansion of the storey in the guide part. The core shoots as a result, not to the desired extent in the front coat. Regarding Bullet opening and bullet depth do not result in any advantages due to the relative intricate construction would be outweighed.

The invention has set itself the task of creating a projectile in which the advantages of the copper jacket, ie the advantage of easier deformability without splintering, can have full effect, but which at the same time eliminates the disadvantage of copper smearing is. This object is achieved by the invention in that a hard metal jacket is drawn over the copper jacket, specifically in the guide area, and the guide is thus transferred to the hard metal jacket. In the projectile according to the invention, the desired easy deformability of the copper jacket is retained, but at the same time the steel jacket ensures better guidance and a stiffening of the longitudinal axis, so that the projectile can be fired at greater speed. The hard metal jacket compresses: does not collapse in the barrel at high initial bullet speeds, which is easy to do with simple copper jacketed bullets. In addition, because of the reinforcement of the rear part of the projectile, the copper jacket surrounding the comparing core can be thinner than in the case of the known projectile.

The part of the soft metal core protruding from the hard metal liner expresses itself when hitting the target. Broad, with the front part of the weak Copper jacket is torn. The expanded part of the core remains partially with its rear end in connection, its expansion in turn by the outer hard metal jacket is prevented.

The outer jacket can be the guide part in full length or only for Include part and accordingly a more or less large part of the soft jacket core set free. The length of the deforming soft lead tip results from the Arrangement of the second jacket, depending on this more or less forward overlaps.

With a shorter dimensioning of the hard metal jacket than the cylindrical one The guide part of the sheathed core sits against the: sheath with its rear end against a thickening of the MTeichmetall projectile part.

The hard metal jacket at the front end is expediently known per se Way cut approximately perpendicular to the axis of the bullet.

The front end of the hard metal jacket is expediently opposite the wrapped soft metal core a shoulder that enlarges the shot opening. The bullet core slides in the hard metal jacket due to the drag of the rear # thickening of the coated core. This is when there is a large reject opening an increased depth effect is achieved. The appropriate design of the Hartmetallmnatel contact point on the collar of the soft metal core an increased back shift of the hard metal jacket possible, the shock effect when hitting bones reinforced. By lengthening or shortening the front end of the hard metal sleeve the shot effect can be influenced.

The exemplary embodiment dealt with in the drawing and description shows further details of the invention.

The copper jacket i, which surrounds the continuous soft lead core, is worn the hard metal jacket 2, 3. By moving the outer jacket forwards or backwards you change the explosive effect or the firing force, when you hit the widening a shorter or longer soft lead core. The hard metal jacket can also the rear part of the wrapped soft lead core with or without retention of one Further or completely cover the paragraph.

The outer hard metal jacket z. B. from fluke or from tombakplattiertern Mild steel prevents the longitudinal compression of the soft lead core, which is covered with a copper jacket, so that it is possible to use this partial jacketed bullet with a greater initial velocity to use. The hard metal jacket described has the further advantage that at high charge, there is no smearing of the barrel as with the copper jacket. Of the Hard metal jacket can be any connection with the copper-clad soft lead core to have.

The hard metal jacket is offset from the soft metal core at 2. the Front side can be shaped as desired. The deposition of the soft metal core and the rear skiving 3 of the hard metal jacket enables it to be shifted back when encountering a stronger resistance, creating an advantageous, expeditious Effect occurs.
