Hello /K/. I’m trying to help my buddy out to find dealers who sell steelcore bullets. So he works as a tester and handloader for company that manufacturers ceramic trauma plates. Recently his ties to the east have dried up cause of the political situation so he can’t order any steelcore bullets. He tried to contact Lapua and they said “kek, we don’t do that sort of stuff. Only tungsten core or something”.

What he needs is a .30 caliber mild steel core bullets with or without (not my barrel :^)) protective jacket. He can’t just buy some crappy eastern block cartridges and disassembly them for bullets. he needs a certification because of standards, documentation etc.

Could you guys provide some companies that manuafator these sort of bullets. Preferably in the Euro zone cause the legal paper work would be easier to handle. He has all the legal paper work in order.

Thanks

-Some asshole who tries to help his buddy out.

Doesnt MEN out of The German Islamic Caliphate use steel core in their projectiles?
>>
>>33866286
Don't know about that cause I and my friend live in Finland, but if you could point a Islamic company inside Germany that makes this sort of crap I would really appreciate it

NAMMO dumbass. They aren't going to supply you with shit, nor will any of the others (Carl Gustav, RUAG/GECO) because they sell in the millions of rounds lots.

They were willing to supply us with the tungsten core solution but that was not what we were after. You could buy Bulk loads from Lapua directly but minimum is 5k. I'm not trying to pick a fight here.

>What he needs is a .30 caliber mild steel core bullets
May I ask why he's after mild steel cored bullets?
After all, they're anything but AP. But I guess they do slightly better because they can retain their shape instead of bending/breaking in softer stuff. But they'll fail bigtime vs any steel that's actually made to be hard unless it's super thin.
Pic related demonstrates both. Some vs my hard steel, some vs thick ice where they could practically be shot again.
>>
Nevermind. You did mention why he needed them.
Was up way too early today, still not thinking straight.
>>
>>33866557

Just a guess, but since he works for a ceramic trauma plate manufacturer, they are intentionally looking for the shittiest thing that will meet the standard for "stopping a steel/metal core bullet".

Whatever standard they are using must not require actual AP ammo.

Op here. To be honest I think you both are right. He mentioned that he will try to replicate typical "east block ak round" which is kind of stupid excuse cause then he could just buy whole cartridges directly, which are still some what easy to get. I'm thinking he will load the cartridges to the lowest Joule limit and use those. Fucking to consumer in the ass. Tough the company makes different kind of plates and they are manufactured to the clients specs.

I met one of these sales people on a security trade show. The guy was bragging how the new traumaplate would stop ALL 7,62 rounds which I asked to clarify:
>7,62 x 25; 7,62 x 39; 7,62 x 54r... all of them. It will stop all of them
didn't ask would it stop a .300 norma magnum loaded hot as shit or some .30 super wildcat.

I guess I'd automatically assume he meant the most prolific military rounds up to 308/54r that aren't specifically armor piercing. I'd never make any assumptions past that.
On my steel, 223/556's speed makes it penetrate infinitely better than soft steel cored 54r that just flattens like my previous picture.

Try RUAG or MEN in Germany for all your ammo needs.

>>33867322
