Definitions

  • This invention relates to a hollow bullet for practice cartridges which differs from the bullets hitherto proposed for this purpose by better trajectory stability and therefore also greater precision, and in which at the same time the melting out of lead from the inside of the bullet into the barrel bore is prevented.
  • the bullet according to the invention is provided on its outer surface with an envelope 2 of copper or other hard metal in order to prevent the rubbing oif of lead in the bore of the barrel.
  • the bullet is hollow and has a transverse partition 3 of lead approximately in its centre of gravity subdividing the inner space of the builet into a closed front space 4 and an open rear space 5, with which latter the bullet is fitted directly on the cartridge case provided with a percussion cap (not shown).
  • the transverse partition 3 forms in the centre of gravity of the bullet the mass which guarantees the trajectory stability, whereas the hollow spaces land 5 reduce the weight of the bullet so that its perforating effect is reduced to a minimum.
  • the main feature of the invention consists in that the hollow space 5, by means of which the bullet is placed directly onto the cartridge case provided with percussion cap, is provided with a lining 6 made of copper or other suitable hard metal, with the object of preventing a deformation or breaking away of the transverse lead partition 3 by the force of the propelling gases of the percussion cap.
  • a lining 6 made of copper or other suitable hard metal, with the object of preventing a deformation or breaking away of the transverse lead partition 3 by the force of the propelling gases of the percussion cap.
  • a bullet for practice cartridges comprising in combination a hol ow lead core, a protecting envelope of metal such as copper on said core, a transverse partition in the centre of gravity of said hollow lead core adapted to ensure the trajectory stability of said bullet and to subdivide said core into a closed front space and an open rear space said open space placed directly on the cartridge casing, and alining of hard metal such as copper in said open space adapted to protect said transverse lead partition against deformation and breaking off during shootin g and to at the same time prevent the lead from melting out of said hollow space.
