    A guide to the recoil from the cartridge, and an indicator of bullet penetration potential. The .30-06 Springfield (at 2.064 lbf-s) is considered the upper limit for tolerable recoil for inexperienced rifle shooters. [2] Chg: Propellant charge, in grains; Dia: Bullet diameter, in inches; BC: Ballistic coefficient, G1 model; L: Case length (mm)

  3. .17 Mach IV - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/.17_Mach_IV

    The name, Mach IV, comes from the claim that the bullets can reach 4,000 ft/s (1,200 m/s; Mach 3.6). [4] Due to the relatively small case capacity, even small variations in powder of 0.5 gr (0.032 g) can lead to the difference between a safe and dangerously over pressure load.

    Components of a modern bottleneck rifle cartridge. Top-to-bottom: Copper-jacketed bullet, smokeless powder granules, rimless brass case, Boxer primer.. Handloading, or reloading, is the practice of making firearm cartridges by manually assembling the individual components (metallic/polymer case, primer, propellant and projectile), rather than purchasing mass-assembled, factory-loaded ...

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Very-low-drag_bullet

    Development of VLD bullets has focused on reducing a form factor defined as the sectional density divided by the ballistic coefficient. [2] Form factor can be minimized by: bullet nose design incorporating a secant ogive, tangent ogive, Von Kármán ogive or Sears-Haack profile [3] the use of tapered bullet heels, also known as boat-tails [1]

  6. QuickLOAD - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/QuickLOAD

    However, QuickLOAD has limitations, as it is merely a computer simulation. It does not account for different brands of primers for example, and its ability to predict the effect of seating bullets into the rifling is crude. A QuickLOAD user most certainly should not just "plug in" a cartridge, bullet and powder and use that load, assuming it is ...

    Speer Gold Dot 124gr 9mm+P in SIG P226 magazines. Overpressure ammunition, commonly designated as +P or +P+ (pronounced Plus-P or Plus-P-Plus), is small arms ammunition that has been loaded to produce a higher internal pressure when fired than is standard for ammunition of its caliber (see internal ballistics), but less than the pressures generated by a proof round.

  8. Tracer ammunition - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tracer_ammunition

    Tracer ammunition, or tracers, are bullets or cannon-caliber projectiles that are built with a small pyrotechnic charge in their base. When fired, the pyrotechnic composition is ignited by the burning powder and burns very brightly, making the projectile trajectory visible to the naked eye during daylight, and very bright during nighttime firing.
