.17 Hornet
17 Hornet Ammo The 17 Hornet Ammo is a fascinating cartridge with two stories to tell. The first 17 Hornet Ammo was created by P.O. Ackley, a famous cartridge developer back in the 1950s. He took the .22 Hornet and necked it down so it could accept a 17 caliber projectile. As a wildcat cartridge, Ackley’s 17 Hornet Ammo was not commercially produced. Then in 2002, Hornady rekindled the idea and also updated the previous 17 Hornet Ammo. The idea behind the updates was to reduce noise levels when shot close to human habitations. It was also to provide ammo that was less prone to ricochet. Unfortunately, due to these updates, the 17 Hornet cartridges won’t fire properly in old guns due to the varying case dimensions. You can, however, modify the old guns to shoot the new ammo if you desire. The primary purpose behind the production of the 17 Hornet Ammo is to hunt predator animals and varmints. The 17 Hornet Ammo is a winner in the speed game when you use lightweight projectiles of 20 and 25 grains. It can easily reach 3,600 feet per second and still have enough energy left at 200 yards to kill predators like a fox. In addition, the recoil on rifles chambered in the 17 Hornet Ammo is surprisingly light. Therefore, it is an excellent pick for building up experience and improving your basic shooting skills. All these are still achievable while you’re still hunting varmint. Today, there are three different loads of the .17 Hornet Ammo, with Hornady and Winchester as the manufacturers.
9x18mm Makarov
9mm Makarov Ammo About The .9mm Makarov Ammo is a submachine gun and soviet pistol cartridge. During the ending half of the 20th Century, it was used as the standard military pistol cartridge of the Soviet Union and Eastern Bloc. During the early Cold War, the 7.62x25mm Tokarev Ammo faced a few shortcomings, one of which was that the magazine would drop during operations, making it unfit to be used. The .9mm Makarov Ammo was designed in 1946 and was intended to be a somewhat powerful round with decent bolt thrust that could function properly in a simple or direct blowback handgun. The .9mm Makarov Ammo was based on the 9x18mm Ultra Ammo design. The .9mm Makarov Ammo uses a larger diameter cartridge than other standard 9mm bullets. The overall length of the .9mm Makarov Ammo is 25mm, and the bullet diameter measures 9.27mm. The heaviest variant of the .9mm Makarov Ammo is a 115-grain bullet load that can travel at a velocity of 1,014 feet per second while creating an energy level of 263 ft.lbf. Manufacturer The .9mm Makarov Ammo was designed in 1946 by B.V. Semin and was later manufactured in 1951 to overcome the 7.62x25mm Tokarev ammo's shortcomings. Uses The 7.62x25mm Tokarev Ammo has been mainly used as a standard pistol cartridge by the Soviet Union military, and it began its early operations at the starting of the Cold War.
