.458 Lott
Jack Lott designed the 458 Lott Ammo. He had an adverse encounter in Mozambique with a buffalo where he suffered some injuries. This incident made him believe that ammo more powerful than the 458 Winchester ammo he was hunting with was vital for dangerous games. He wanted ammo that could drive a 510-grain bullet at 2150 fps at moderate muzzle pressure. When he couldn’t find one that fit the bill, he chose to design one of his own. The designs of the 458 Lott Ammo were on a paper diner napkin. The plan maintained most of the features of the .458 Winchester Magnum. However, he solved the case capacity issue by extending the case length from 2500 inches to 2850 inches. However, during experimentation, the case ended up at 2800 inches. With the new case capacity, the .458 Lott could drive a 500-grain bullet to a muzzle velocity of 2300 fps and 2570 foot-pounds energy. The .458 Lott Ammo can also achieve a muzzle velocity of 2150 fps with a 600-grain bullet. This performance is far higher than that of the .458 Winchester it replaces. It also provides superior penetration, which makes it an excellent fit for hunting dangerous games. It also features a tapered case that offers exceptional flexibility in reloading to lower muzzle velocities. The ability to reload to a lower velocity provides shooters with ammunition that has less recoil. Therefore, the .458 Lott Ammo is versatile because it works well for hunting small to medium games and is also a perfect fit when you’re hunting dangerous games like the African Buffalo and Alaskan brown bear.
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.
