The basis of success Ø 5.72

The highest priority for RWS has always been to produce top quality branded products. Manufactured using the most modern technology and streamlined production processes from initial concept to final quality assurance it is evident that, even with the small rimfire cartridge, that reliability and accuracy are paramount. To achieve this high level of performance all the components must fit together perfectly. For example:

RWS rimfire cartridges

Small rimfire information With centrefire cartridges the primer is centred in the primer pocket of the cartridge base and is linked to the propellant. With rimfire cartridges, however, the priming compound is pressed right into the rim of the base, therefore the name rimfire.

Bullet

Case

• The bullet: its shape is perfectly developed and has a direct influence on the accuracy and the flat trajectory.

By lubricating the bullet lead deposits in the barrel can be avoided. The bullet ensures the ideal ballistic characteristics and low wind sensitivity.

• The powder: must ignite immediately and burn evenly so that the same pressure is applied to every shot, therefore achieving identical trajectories.

1.09MAX

Not a bad batch: RWS rimfire ammunition A characteristic of target shooting is that no two barrels are identical therefore, RWS rimfire calibre cartridges are available in various types. Despite the use of the best materials and greatest care during production there will always be slight differences, which influence the accuracy of a shot. The tolerances within in a manufacturing batch of ammunition are extremely low but there are microscopic differences from batch to batch. The accuracy of the RWS smallbore ammunition and the minimal differences from batch to batch

- only noticeable when shooting - enable the right ammunition for each barrel to be found. Therefore, experienced shooters have always selected the best RWS ammunition for their rifle barrel from different batches. When they have found the correct batch they stock up in sufficient quantity to avoid testing for some time. Following this practice of the top shooters will enable everyone to find the right ammunition for their rifle and thus improve their shooting performance.

25.1

RWS rimfire cartridges have been competition winners for many years, successful at Olympic, International, Championships and Club levels. Competitors worldwide know that using R100 or R50 will give them the extra needed for a podium finish.

Propellant

Primer

• The precision in loading: The quantity of powder has to be exact and should not vary in the slightest otherwise the know-how and care invested by the experts in cartridge development and production would be wasted.

Fascination biathlon

Premium Line

RWS aims to win

Highest quality and accuracy for competitions and training

No other sport shooting discipline generates more interest within the media than the biathlon during winter. In combination with physically demanding cross country skiing this sport is gaining in popularity.

The shooting stops form the most spectacular appearances of the biathletes during the competition. In the midst of their cross country run they stop to fire several shots at a distance of 50m.

It is hard to imagine how exact the physical and chemical reactions of both ammunition and system of the biathlon rifle must be in order to hit the target accurately. What is said in general terms under the heading of ‘rimfire cartridges‘ also applies here.

However, the demand of biathletes for more precise and consistent ammunition is much higher than that of most target shooters. Biathletes can never be sure what wind and weather conditions they will encounter but at least they need not worry about the ammunition when using RWS R 100. The materials used, the velocity and the arising gas pressure have been fine-

8

tuned so that in all weathers an excellent result can be achieved. Even in extreme sub zero temperatures a faultless function is guaranteed and enables outstanding performance.

During Winter training the RWS Rifle Match S is best suited as the performance of this cartridge is also not impaired by cold weather.

As official partner of the Swiss National Biathlon Team and numerous German top athletes, RWS ensures that the shooters go into the competition with the best ammunition. Accuracy counts for everything – that’s why we have made a sport of it.

further significantly reduced, due to special coatings - amongst others with nano-polymers. The corepiece of this new technology is the adoption of the heavy metal free SINTOX priming compound for the use in a rimfire cartridge. RWS is building on around 30 years of expertise in the development and production of SINTOX primers. The result is quite spectacular: Up to 80% less lead emissions at optimum performance.

RWS airgun pellets are characterized by their particularily skilful material composition, the special surface finish and optimized weight. This guarantees outstanding precision values.

All RWS Match pellets are produced in the classic diabolo shape. Head design, tail section and the special form of pellet head plate are decisive factors for the optimum stabilisation of the pellet in the barrel and therefore also for sharply punched holes. Tight production tolerances combined with strict testing conditions lead to further optimisation of accuracy – this is where quality is newly defined.

RWS test shooting range The perfect combination of ammunition and rifle or pistol is decisive for the success of the target shooter.

Therefore the requirements placed on the precision of competition barrels and ammunition are high, especially as each barrel has its own characteristics.

Consequently it is important to match the competition barrel with different batches of ammunition, in order to find the optimal batch. For more than 20 years experienced target shooters have used the facilities of the RWS test shooting range at our factory in Fuerth to select the ideal target ammunition. We offer an unique service to our dealers to synchronise their clients’ weapons with the most suited RWS ammunition.

Ideal conditions: The test shooting range is indoors and the results are not influenced by the weather. Five separate lanes equipped with target transport systems and electronic targeting system are available, and testing is possible from the stock or by clamping the barrel at distances of 10, 15, 25 and 50 meters.

The following sport weapons can be tested: • Air rifles • Air pistols and CO2 pistols • Pistols cal. .22lr, .32 S&W long • Smallbore rifles: .22 LR

The ammunition is included in the low user charge.

Qualified expert staff supervise the tests and provide helpful advice.

You can test: • RWS R 50 and R 100 as well as Special Match, Super Pistol 250, Pistol C25 and Pistol Match • RWS R 10 Match

In my professional capacity as a sport shooter for more than 20 years I have gathered a lot of experience with weapons and ammunition. The most important aspect of ammunition is constant high quality. Tests of different suppliers enabled me to find the best quality in outstanding ammunition. After more than 15 years of successfully using RWS R 50 I have found the perfect cartridge of high precision. The faultless manufacturing of this product, that never fails, coupled with its excellent shot pattern offer the shooter the necessary safety and guarantee to achieve top quality performance in training and competitions. Compared to other suppliers in this market, in my view, this cartridge is a must for every shooter who values quality and reliability.

T HE CHA MPI O NS Success through precision

For each sport shooter intensive training as well as the perfect combination of ammunition and weapon are the deciding factors for success. Manfred Kurzer was an adviser when perfecting the new RWS® competition ammunition. Even tighter production tolerances and testing procedures are leading to further improvements of quality and guarantee outstanding precision values. These results were convincingly demonstrated in Athens: RWS® is the most successful brand in the airgun pellet market. Manfred Kurzer’s victory and world record in Athens effectively illustrate the success story of the RWS R 10 Match and Meisterkugeln.
