TECHNICAL DATES
Match Grade Hard Cast Bullets. The Action Bullets can
be pushed over 1400 fps, without significant leading. The outstanding
accuracy on the target is the characteristic to distinguish the product.
Normally, high speed and high frequency shooting encourage the phenomenon
of the leading of the barrel: a typical example of this are the matches
of Practical Shooting. So, not leaving any deposits of lead in the barrel
at high speed is one of the characteristics of the Action Bullets. Anyhow,
as important as that is the capacity to stabilize as easily as possible
within the limits of the used weapon. The more accurate the bullet,
the better one can take advantage of the technical quality of the barrel
one shoots with, which usually is created for bullets with jacket and
therefore with well-pronounced rifling pitches and spaces with little
profound rifling. The particular composition of the ternary alloy of
Action Bullets (antimonial lead) confers quite particular characteristics
of plasticity, avoiding unpleasant "sizing in the barrel" which gives
the tumbling effect and the bullets arrive flat and imprecisely on the
target. As we know, the factors that influence the accuracy of the bullet
on the target are many: profoundness and pitch of the rifling; maximum
pressure and temperature of the gas, generated by burning: the surface
hardness, elasticity and melting point of the lead alloy; lubricant
of the bullets. The formula and the elaboration of the alloy are a compromise
between elasticity and surface hardness and, in minor proportion, the
melting point: one of the basic elements that give elasticity in a homogeneous
way is the virginity of the alloy. Action Bullets makes use of only
virgin materials prepared by selected suppliers and products with quality
certificates. They hold to have reached the best union between structural
elasticity and surface hardness. The typical test that Action Bullets
suggests to the user to compare bullets of different origins is the
vice compression and the cutting with nippers; a test that unequivocally
emphasizes the plasticity of the bullets and the absence of crystallization
and internal impurities. And all this has been realized by Action Bullets
with the aim of maximum accuracy, in the widest field of possible conditions
of speed and pressure. Another element that characterizes Action Bullets
is the constancy of the products: the homogeneity of the cartridges
is determining for the shooters and therefore it is very important that
the bullets always have the same weight, diameter and hardness. Finally
the lubricant: Action Bullets makes use of a grease on a synthetic basis,
Made in the U.S.A., specific for high speed. Action Bullets selects
manually the whole production, after the melting and before the sizing,
in order to guarantee the maximum quality of the product. Note: Action
Bullets uses the denomination of its own products, weights in nominal
grains, referring to the specific die that is produced by specialized
workshops in the U.S.A. The real weight of the Action Bullets is ca.
2% / 3% more than the nominal value (according to the die). Action Bullets
is also an RB 17 Gun Cleaner, the efficacious quick action lead remover,
produced in Texas, exclusively for Action Bullets.
