Abstract (en)

[origin: WO2004053423A1] The invention relates to a rifle bullet for hunting purposes, with a jacket of a lead-free soft ductile material and a core, connected to the jacket, made from a material softer than the jacket. The aim of the invention is to improve said bullet to provide a persistent cut of hair and bleeding at the point of entry, mushrooming in a controlled manner with considerable cross-sectional enlargement, whilst only marginally breaking up with a high residual weight (90 % and more). Said rifle bullet (1) has a thinly-jacketed bullet tip (4) and has a marked sharp edge (7) at the transition point of the jacket (2) on the bullet tip (4) to a substantially thicker-jacketed tail section (5). The rifle bullet (1) is internally provided with a circumferential channel (10) engaging in the wall thickness of the jacket (2) at said point, filled with the core material.
