Rifle Ammo

Rifle Ammo or cartridge is a firearm cartridge primarily designed and intended for use in a long gun with rifled barrels, such as a rifle/carbine, squad automatic weapon, or some machine guns.
The rifle has a long barrel with rifling and thick walls to withstand high pressures. Rifling puts a spiral spin on a bullet fired from a rifle, increasing accuracy and distance.
Rifles are typically used for firing at stationary targets.
The bore of a rifle barrel is made for only one specific caliber of ammunition.
