The invention relates to a method for producing a deformation bullet, consisting of a projectile core made from lead in a tombac jacket. So that the performance of the bullet, such as the accuracy, deformation and energy transfer in the target medium can be adjusted and a homogeneous core of the bullet is created, the structure of which has a predefined breaking point on the center axis of the bullet, the following method steps are suggested: a. manufacture of a cup-shaped tombac jacket, introduction of lead into the tombac jacket and soldering of the lead with the tombac jacket in order to produce a blank, b. introduction of a pre-existing defect into the lead of the blank by pressing a die displaceable on the center axis of the blank into the lead and then removing the die, c. final pressing of the blank into the final shape of the deformation bullet with outer longitudinal grooves on the ogive and with a rear inner cone 6, wherein a pressing force larger than 7000 N is used during the final pressing process.

A cartridge with a steel component bullet has desirable penetration capabilities and controlled separation of components upon terminal impact. In embodiments of the invention, the cartridge comprises a steel component, a lead core, and a copper jacket. The lead jacket having a leading edge portion that extends to the cylindrical mid portion. The steel component bullet may have a forward pointed ogive portion, a cylindrical mid portion, and a tapered rearward portion. The rearwardly facing surface may be concave. The leading edge portion may have a taper oriented in a direction opposite the taper of the ogive portion of the steel component. Structure to inhibit spin is positioned on a rearward face of the steel component. The bullet having a concave rear face.

Improved shotgun ammunition providing improved guidance for a large range of different barrel diameters without the use of plastic wads that separate the metal of the projectile from the barrel, while decreasing the stress for the barrel material, providing the greatest possible expansion of the projectile during impact on soft targets.
