  2. Obturation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Obturation

    Bullet's Brinell hardness number (BHN) x 9.80665 N/kgf×10 6 mm²/m² = [N/m²] = pressure in pascals Bullet's BHN x 1422 = pressure in pounds per square inch [3]. The conversion factor of 1422 is mathematically derived in order to convert the pressure in kgf/mm 2 (the units used to measure BHN) to lbf/in 2 (the units used to measure cartridge pressure).

  3. Cast bullet - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cast_bullet

    An open single-cavity bullet mold and a closed two-cavity mold. A cast bullet is made by allowing molten metal to solidify in a mold.Most cast bullets are made of lead alloyed with tin and antimony; but zinc alloys have been used when lead is scarce, and may be used again in response to concerns about lead toxicity.

  5. Terminal ballistics - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Terminal_ballistics

    A larger-diameter bullet is going to have significantly more drag than a smaller-diameter bullet of the same mass, which means long-range performance will be significantly degraded. A larger diameter bullet also means more space is required to store the ammunition, which means either bulkier guns or smaller magazine capacities.

  6. Table of handgun and rifle cartridges - Wikipedia

    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.

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/M712_Copperhead

    M712 Copperhead approaches an old M47 Patton tank used as a target M712 detonating. The M712 Copperhead is a 155 mm caliber cannon-launched guided projectile.It is a fin-stabilized, terminally laser guided, explosive shell intended to engage hard point targets such as tanks, self-propelled howitzers or other high-value targets.

  8. Smart bullet - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Smart_bullet

    Moreover, the laser would not have to originate from the source of the bullet, allowing the projectile to be fired at a target beyond visual range. [6] To allow the bullet to modify its flight path, the body was designed as a metal and polymer combination. The polymer would act as a deformable surface that would deflect the air-stream and steer ...
