Hit Hunting Short Rifle Metal Ammunition

RWS SHORT RIFLE

RWS HIT is the newest bullet in the RWS line, HIT stands for High Impact Technology. Coupled with the proven qualities shared by all RWS rifle bullets, it is a stable expansion design that is a great leadless alternative for hunters who prefer a non-fragmentable bullet. The new HIT combines proven design principles with innovative enhancements.

The new RWS HIT bullet has been developed as a lead-free alternative, especially for hunters who prefer fragmentation-free bullets. Despite the rapid response of our lead-free projectile, the residual mushroom-shaped body maintains its stable mass. This guarantees high penetration and a safe bullet exit, even at high impact velocities or high resistance on the target. The superior characteristics of this projectile pay off especially with tougher species.

Unlike fragmentation projectiles, the HIT projectile transfers its energy exclusively through a 100% mushroom-shaped expansion without shrapnel in the animal. The result is a better use of the deer meat.

Advantage

• Powerful penetration, even through heavy bone! Minimal flesh damage thanks to a non-fragmentable and lead-free bullet expansion.
  
• Impressive ballistics with increased speed, flatter trajectory and more impact energy, powerful shock effect with the HIT RWS Matrix.
  
• As usual with all RWS rifle cartridges, the new HIT also has the proven RWS advantages: reliable, effective, accurate and innovative.

projectile design

RWS TC-Tip (Projectile tip with two hollow chambers):

The innovative projectile tip performs two functions:

• Thanks to its aerodynamic shape, we achieve an improved ballistic coefficient (BC) and a direct trajectory. This implies a high projectile velocity and impact energy.
  
• Through the joint action of the two hollow chambers, a sudden expansion of the entire front part of the projectile is achieved. This guarantees a high shock effect and immobilization of the animal as quickly as possible.
  

RWS ACC (Projectile design with a hollow point):

The Active CraterCavity (ACC) absorbs the initial deformation caused by the projectile tip (TC-Tip) perfectly and actively transforms it into another even more accelerated projectile deformation process. The result is a perfect mushroom-shaped expansion, without shrapnel and with a predefined striation formation that takes place directly penetral into the animal.

Construction of the RWS HIT projectile

• RWS ACC (Active CraterCavity) for actively accelerated mushroom expansion and high shock effect.
  
• RWS TC-Tip (Twin CompressionTip) with two hollow chambers that provide effective initial deformation and a direct trajectory.
  
• Solid copper projectile with a nickel coating and a very high ballistic coefficient (BC).
  
• Tapered butt for precision and stability in flight.
  
• Performance Grooves for increased performance.
