Rifles are long guns with a rifled barrel from which individual projectiles are fired. They differ from shotguns, which have a smoothbore barrel from which shot is fired. Rifled barrels have rifling and fields, i.e. spiral depressions in the barrel. These set the projectile in rotation, which significantly increases the accuracy.
The main focus of hunters today when it comes to rifle ammunition is whether or not it is lead-free. Lead ammunition is preferred by many hunters because it is said to have comparatively low game destruction-just hematomas in the game body are less common with lead ammunition than, for example, when using lead-free partial fragmentation bullets, according to many hunting experts. In addition, the risk of ricochets is lower with lead ammunition because the bullets deform easily, they say.
