Training projectile and training cartridge

Abstract

The invention relates to a training projectile (1) for short-range use, in particular less than 100 meters, comprising a front region (2), which extends along a central axis (M) and which comprises a projectile tip (3), and comprising a tail region (4), which adjoins the front region (2) in the direction of the central axis (M) and which comprises a projectile end (5). The tail region (4) is designed for receiving the projectile (1) in a cartridge case (6). The projectile (1) comprises a projectile core (7) made of metal and a jacket (8) which surrounds the projectile core (7), determines the outer shape of the projectile (1), and is made of plastics.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a training bullet for use at short distances, in particular at distances of less than 100 meters, particularly preferably at distances of less than 50 meters, according to the preamble of claim 1 and to a training bullet with said training bullet as claimed in claim 10 training rounds. Background technique [0002] Ammunition is known in the prior art. For example, the Swiss Army uses rifle cartridge 90 (GP 90). NATO also uses very similar ammunition. [0003] Such ammunition typically includes a bullet or projectile, a cartridge case for storing the bullet and propellant charge, and a cap disposed in a cartridge seat by which the propellant charge can be properly ignited to enable proper firing of the projectile. [0004] In the case of the ammunition described above, both the bullet and the cartridge case are constructed of metallic material. For example, a bullet may be made of a lead alloy and may have a brass alloy cas...
