Personal Defence Weapon Ammunition (PDW), Calibre 4.6x30

The calibre 4.6x30 has been tailored to meet unique requirements

for Police and Military Special Forces, combat-support soldiers and

close personal protection.

RUAG 4.6x30 ammunition provides a better range, accuracy

and armour-penetrating capability than traditional pistol-calibre

cartridges. The compact size of the round increases the

ammunition capacity of the weapons, while the light weight

reduces both the recoil and the load borne by the user. Precise

and powerful, the 4.6x30 can penetrate both protected and

unprotected targets at a greater distance effectively and accura-

tely.

The close cooperation between the weapons manufacturer

Heckler & Koch and RUAG Ammotec provides a system with

a perfect functioning weapon, compatibility without compromise

and the highest possible safety.MP7 A1 by Heckler & Koch

RUAG Premium Quality Ammunition

Hardness profile screening

RUAG Ammotec stands for state-of-the-art ammunition tech-

nology, highest precision and absolute functional reliability. It

develops and produces high-performance, small calibre standard

and special ammunition for the Armed Forces, Law Enforcement

Authorities and the civilian market, as well as customer-specific

components for the industry.

RUAG Ammotec emerged as an international company in spring

2002 following the merging of the small-calibre activities of

the Swiss company RUAG and the German company Dynamit

Nobel. This created one of the world’s leading ammunition manu-

facturers. RUAG Ammotec has production plants in Switzerland,

Germany, Sweden, Hungary and the USA, and subsidiary sales

and distribution companies in Belgium, France, Great Britain and

Austria.

A pioneering spirit and innovation characterise the history of

RUAG Ammotec. The original company began manufacturing

ammunition for the military and police forces 150 years ago. It

has also manufactured top brand ammunition for hunters and

sports shooters for many years.

RUAG Ammotec strives to maintain and further expand its

recognised position on the international market. By continually

developing its products, it meets the high standards, requirements

and expectations of its customers and will be an innovative and

reliable partner in the future.

The Right Cartridge for Every Situation

FMJ SX - General duty ammunition

The FMJ SX combines a good energy trans-

fer in soft targets (maximum penetration in

uncovered gelatine < 35 cm) with excep-

tional precision up to 200m. It has been

used by armies and Special Forces units

around the world.

ACTION SX - Optimal stopping power

for soft targets

The ACTION SX deformation bullet offers

fast energy deposit in soft targets (maxi-

mum penetration in uncovered gelatine

< 30 cm) and a good penetration capabi-

lity in hard and combined targets such as

car doors or body armour. It is completely

lead-free.

AP SX - High penetration on hard

targets

This lead-free cartridge combines an ex-

ceptional penetration capability with

good energy transfer in soft targets. The

bullet penetrates the NATO CRISAT target

(1.6 mm titanium plate supplemented by

20 layers of Kevlar) from distances up to

200m.

Frangible SX - No ricochet in training

Frangible ammunition is specially desi-

gned to provide a realistic tactical trai-

ning for CQB and MOUT. Instant frag-

mentation upon impact means shooters

can engage targets at closer range

without risking being hit by backsplashes

or ricochets. The cartridge is completely

lead-free.

Training SX - Reduced risk of ricochet

in training and service

The Training SX with lead-free semi-jacke-

ted tin-bullet guarantees high precision

and low ricochet tendency and is “target-

friendly” to shooting range facilities. It can

even be used as service ammunition in

sensitive areas (e. g. ships, power plants)

at close range.

Drill – Instruction of firearm handling

Risk-free practicing of the firearm handling

with inert cartridges.

Blank SX – No risk training

Blank cartridges enable realistic simulation

with the service weapon equipped with

the blank firing attachment.

The most important point for choosing a primer is its reliability.

RUAG has addressed this issue since 1928 with the invention of

the most reliable, corrosion-free SINOXID-primer.

However standard primers contain lead styphenate, which shoo-

ters can get exposed to during the firing process. This may lead to

hazardous overexposure.
