Reassuring
... when you know you can rely on
the cartridge.
Hunting is never predictable. Imagine you are in the perfect situa-
tion to shoot a big running boar, the cartridge misfires or the bullet
does not perform as expected; suddenly you are now in a poten-
tially dangerous situation. Choice of ammunition must not be left to
chance, it is essential for hunting success.

For RWS reliability is top priority, which is why there are precise
quality control checks after every one of the 100 production steps
in the manufacture of a rifle cartridge. A cartridge is only approved
for sale after it has met all the criteria
relevant to safety and performance.
For reliability - RWS.

RWS is the only German manufacturer that makes the components for rifle cartridges itself: projectile, case and primer • Made in Germany • More than 100 Norbert Cyron (Head of Quality Management at RWS) – Here in Quality Assurance we check before, during and after production, to

... at all distances.
Its quite easy to be satisfied with the accuracy of a rifle cartridge at
100mts but only a long range shot will prove if you can rely on the
accuracy of your ammunition at all distances.

A cartridge that can fulfill all the demands of it is a pre-requisite for

successful hunting. A precision cartridge must have all the compo-
nents matched to each other which is why RWS has the produc-
tion of cases, primers and bullets under its own control.
For RWS accuracy is essential - at all distances.

Harmony
... when the gun and ammunition
are in tune.

A valuable gun is worthless without the correct quality ammunition.

Every shot subjects the barrel to a certain amount of stress, this
can be minimized by selecting the right ammunition.

RWS uses mercury free primers and grades of powder with addi-
tives to help preserve the barrel. We also use special coatings on
our bullets to keep wear to a minimum and extend the life of the
barrel. A high value match for life long successful hunting.

Punta de plástico For special applications
Full Metal Jacket bullets have a variety of uses including training, v­ armint
hunting and in some countries for shooting small game birds. In large
calibers they are also suitable for game such as buffalo; they can
punch through tough bones and a heavy body. To ensure the
bullet performs and travels through the body the nose of
the bullet must be enclosed and in some cases reinforced.
Small calibers have a sharper more pointed nose and the
larger calibers are more rounded.

involves frequent traveling. Regrettably, this often means having
hardly any time for hunting, so I am particularly pleased if I can
accept an invitation to a hunt. And then I place my trust entirely in
