BALISTIX RBT TARGET BULLETS .243"/6mm 85gr (50)

1. Bullet Manufacturing

• Consistent geometry (CNC manufactured).
• Mid-SAAMI tolerance on diameter (± 3,5 Micron (µm) maximum on manufacturing)

2. Technical Features of Bullet

2.1 Material

• Pure copper (>99,5% copper).
• Environmentally friendly (lead-free).
• Aligned with international trends (embargo on leaded ammunition).
• The specific gravity of pure copper is 10 – 15% less than equivalent lead-core bullets. The monolithic bullet is lighter than the equivalent length lead core bullet, therefore increased velocity is achievable.
• By selecting the appropriate monolithic bullet for a given twist rate, a flatter trajectory may be achieved compared to the lead core alternative. Follow the manufacturer’s recommendation on selecting an appropriate bullet weight for the rifle’s twist rate.

2.2 Rebated Boat Tail

• Deflected gas flow away from the bullet during bullet exit at the crown, ensuring less turbulent gas conditions in front of the bullet.
• Up to 15% increase in precision and accuracy compared to conventional boat tail design.
• Flat base bullet precision and accuracy with boat-tail BC benefits.
• Boat tail angle conforms to the popular industrial standard for optimized BC.

2.3 Ogive

• Tangent Ogive design is less “jump” sensitive.
• Ogive is not of a “bore rider” design, i.e. the ogive engages with the lands.
• The bullet is “tunable” for precision (i.e. jump adjustable).
• Bullet position in the case can be measured with ogive comparator tools.
• Both a “target” and “hunting” ogive designs available. Same impact point. Both a “target” and “hunting” ogive designs available. Same impact point.

2.4 Bearing Surface

• Designed within SAAMI tolerances.
• Improved low friction drive band design which results in:

– Minimum copper fouling

– Low-pressure characteristics

3. Hexagonal Boron Nitrate (HBN)

Hexagonal Boron Nitrate is widely used in industrial applications due to its excellent dry lubricating properties and ultra-high-temperature abilities. Hexagonal Boron Nitrate has the best combination of high-temperature resistance and lubricating properties, out of all solid lubricants available today.

3.1 Excellent Lubrication

• HBN application results in less fouling and less pressure compared to untreated monolithic bullets.
• Reduced extreme velocity spread and therefore improved precision and accuracy.
• Improved accuracy between the cold bore and follow-up shots. Further reduces elevation dispersion.
