Guns are like the "sword" of our time. Modern times require all modern armies to employ guns and advanced technologies to help their troops and win any battle they are put into. Ammunition is one of these things we as human being will need to use a gun. A bullet would be an incorrect term for those who do use weapons. The bullet is only one part that is called the projectile. The real components to a cartridge is the bullet, case, primer, and propellant or gunpowder. Each of these components is made separately and then assembled together. The bullets are made of a lead alloy that contains tin or antimony. Some ullet will have a thick jacket of copper on the outside to improve performance. Cases are made of brass, steel, or aluminium. Brass is the most common one of all these options. Although, shotgun shells are mostly made with a polypropylene. Primers are made of copper or brass alloy cup with a brass anvil and are filled with an impact senstive lead styphnate ignitor.
Modern weapons will always need the help of ammunition. I'm a fan of swords, but I still love guns. I believe that knowing how to make a cartridge may be useful for people who love guns since one person may want to make their own.
