A new production line was opened at the Ulyanovsk ammunition plant in a festive atmosphere, according to Online regional government.

A new line for the production of 338Lapua Mag and 308Win cartridges has been opened in Ulyanovsk
Governor of the Ulyanovsk region Sergey Morozov at the ceremony of launching a new production line at Ulyanovsk Cartridge Plant JSC. Ulyanovsk, 14.03.2018.

Work on the modernization of production was carried out in the interests of law enforcement agencies of the Russian Federation. Construction of the new plant was carried out as part of the federal target program, which was designed for three years - from 2015 to 2017.

Today, the Ulyanovsk Cartridge Plant launched a test production of new types of products that were not previously produced at the enterprises of the country. This is almost a billion rubles of investment. As a result, a unique technology of manufacturing new types of products was created. Completion of tests and the actual start of production are scheduled for the second half of 2018. This will allow the company to expand its sales markets and increase its output. In turn, the regional authorities are doing everything so that every enterprise in the Ulyanovsk region and each of our residents will have more and more new opportunities every year. Vladimir Putin said this very well when he called Russia a country of opportunities, and the people of Russia were its most important wealth
The governor of the Ulyanovsk region, Sergey Morozov, said at the ceremony.

As the plant specialists said, during the modernization, equipment was purchased that allows "to provide highly accurate process debugging and provide automatic control of key process parameters (based on CNC)." As a result, a unique technology of manufacturing new types of products was created.



The new equipment will produce cartridges of the .338 caliber lapamagnum and a cartridge of the .308 caliber hard drive. These are high-precision sniper cartridges that are in service in the Russian Federation. They are very popular both in our country and in the world. The uniqueness of this complex lies in the fact that if earlier in Russia they only collected such cartridges, now we will manufacture the cartridges, bullets, the shell and all the necessary components and collect all this. Thus, the cartridges will become fully Russian-made,
explained the executive director of the company Alexey Dubonosov.

It is also reported that “according to the results of 2017 of the year, the volume of products shipped by the Ulyanovsk cartridge plant exceeded 2,7 billion rubles, which is comparable to the similar indicators of 2016 of the year”. Last year, the company transferred 134 million rubles to the consolidated budget of the Ulyanovsk Region.

    But seriously, well done! If I’m not mistaken, then there were such projects under the Soviet regime. Cartridges are in demand, there is a shortage of them on the market, and cartridge production is advanced technologies, jobs, interesting work.

            You are wrong, the civilian market in our country is far from small, especially for the 308 caliber. To this caliber, a lot of weapons were imported and released (especially the Hammer).
            The 338 caliber is specific, and the military will have few users for it. Perhaps there will be even more civilian users if the quality is normal.

              Because of the tightening of nuts and even greater tightening, the share of the civilian rifle market drops as a result, even if few people want to buy carbines, it means that the cartridges will most likely go to the army or for export, that is, to develop the domestic arms market in Russia, this is a drop in the ocean in mostly the most popular calibers, primarily because of their price, these are 7.62x39 223rem and 5.45x39 they are available

      338 is very far away. Accurate shooting with such a caliber "per kilometer" (subject to the quality of the barrel and cartridge) is the norm. There are "records" of hitting targets with snipers at distances of 2.5 - 3 km, but these are more likely to be "accidental" hits in the framework of harassing fire or a shot in extremely ideal conditions ...
      To understand: this is 2 or more times farther than the 7.62x54R from SVD!

          I'm talking about military records, reports of snipers about hitting a target. They are confirmed differently.
          In recent years, such records have come from the mountains of Afghanistan, there are good conditions for long-range shooting.
          Sports records (the same Lobaev’s record), it’s more like throwing a bullet along a ballistic trajectory ...

      338 LM is more suitable for military purposes. He has more effective range and bullet energy. Due to the heavier bullet, the wind has less impact on it ...
      Therefore, in military sniper shooting, 338 LM, or even heavier caliber 408 CT, is preferred.

        You do not understand why .338LM appeared. This is due to pressure inside the barrel. With the same weight of the bullet, with a larger caliber, the pressure will be lower. Easier to produce trunks with a large shot.
        And upon the fact of the bullet’s flight, the ratio of length to caliber and weight determines the aerodynamic quality, which is much worse for the .338 LM than the .300 WM. At a distance of 300m, the bullet of the latter, in terms of residual energy, begins to burst forward.

          If you do not see the difference, this does not mean that it does not exist.
          The 7,62x54R is designed for tape feeding and is poorly suited for store charging. And imported 7,62x51 - vice versa (this cartridge is needed for Marxman rifles such as SVD).
          The 8,6x69 LapMag cartridge is needed for sniper weapons. True, IMHO, it is better to use 7,62x67 WinMag, which at ranges over 300m bypasses the first.

                  The pitch of the tape depends on the weapon and is not connected with the cartridge.
                  There is no overspending in the metal tape due to the cartridge or its flange. A flange with a hem is convenient for machine guns and not a tape. It allows you to significantly simplify the pulling mechanism, which is not limited by the accuracy of a few tenths of a millimeter (cartridges with a groove) and can compensate for the uneven arrangement of cartridges in the tape by a couple of millimeters.

                    Very controversial, because try to do a tape with a minimum step for a minimum power consumption of automation. At the same time, the taper of 7,65x54R and its flange make it necessary to increase the distance between the sleeves.

                      For minimum energy consumption, it is necessary that the mass of the tape, with a length before laying, is minimal. Otherwise, you need to drag (pull out!) Excess weight. Your machine gun may begin to twitch left and right.
                      And tapering has nothing to do with it. There should be a distance between the sleeves for a normal bend (taking into account the hooks of the tape), otherwise you will get a stick that you will not put into a small box.

Just our machine guns, it is with this cartridge that they are considered reliable. The rest is wedged for various reasons. Americans just do that push the supply of their cartridges.

                      It simplifies and reduces the cost of production of the cartridge itself (no milling operations and less accuracy requirements) and its use in tapes.
                      And in weapons with store feed, you need to use a different cartridge.

                        it is necessary that the mass of the tape, with a length before laying, is minimal. Otherwise, you need to drag (pull out!) Excess weight.

                        There should be a distance between the sleeves for a normal bend (taking into account the hooks of the tape), otherwise you will get a stick that you will not put into a small box.
                        If the axis is a cartridge, then there is no problem.
                        But 2 mm of the flange gives these extra 2 mm. or 20 cm per 100 rounds ... or 50 cm to 250 ...

        Well here you exaggerate. 7,62x39 is not outdated and holds on to its positions, not inferior to the newfangled 6,5x39 Grendel. It has the potential to increase energy, but it is necessary to change the standard (and the mechanics of previously released weapons). And there is an option for silent shooting with a small weight of gunpowder and a heavy bullet.

    My opinion is this ... Such a plant should have been planted yesterday. Weapons in the hands of ordinary citizens in 308 are huge. You can say this is a favorite rifled cartridge. In case of war, all these weapons will be partisan. And the cartridges were from behind the hill, even Barnaul simply assembled them from foreign components. Now, if we cut off the supply of components, we ourselves can supply our partisans. Yes, and captured weapons can be used more safely. It would not hurt Barnaul to master the full production of these cartridges from scratch.
    For those who are not in the hunting-sporting and weapons-related topic, I will tell you which weapons are available to a simple law-abiding citizen of the Russian Federation ... "Vepr", "Tiger", "Saiga", "Elk", "MR-18MN", "VPO", "ORSIS ".... each brand has dozens of modifications, as well as a huge number of foreign carbines. It is announced in the near future and new developments (Maral, Izyubr, etc.) All these barrels devour a huge number of rounds and it’s strange not to have one factory.
    I hope that the quality will be excellent, moreover, at the Barnaul price.

    history mentions that the problem arose in the late 70s, when one of the American presidents presented Leonid Ilyich with Winchester. I just don’t remember what caliber. Either 300WM (Winchester Magnum), or 308W. From that time, the production of the cartridge began in small batches, and the barrels were under such a cartridge

    Well, for elephants and rhinos and in general for the "Big African Five" this caliber is small. it needs a bigger caliber, something like 416, 470, 505 or 577 caliber. And 338 LM is mainly for sniper shooting at ranges of 1200-1500 meters. 300 - closer, 900-1200

    It all sounds great, of course, but somehow these “wonderful” news hides behind these solemn reports that workers are expected to be cut at the same cartridge factory, although there is other, really encouraging information about possible major contracts that will save people from dismissal. People stood still. By the way, at another large plant in the Ulyanovsk Region - Aviastar SP from the UAC, too, according to some sources, serious reductions are expected. Everything as expected among employees ... "fun" will begin immediately after the election. Let's hope that the information is not confirmed.

The equipment was nearly turned into scrap metal, but they were left and continue to work on it. And they say it has not changed for a very long time. But as I understand it, the cartridges them, the Barnaul, are not worth it, as they are being sold. And give dividends to the owners. Please forgive me if I don’t. hi
