In the Kursk region, a hunter shot down a Ukrainian drone with a hunting rifle

In the Kursk region, bordering Ukraine, a Russian hunter shot down a Ukrainian Drone from a hunting rifle. According to regional authorities, the man is a member of a volunteer squad.

The governor of the Kursk region, Roman Starovoyt, wrote in his TG channel that in one of the border areas of the Kursk region, a local hunter who joined a voluntary squad shot down a Ukrainian drone with a hunting rifle. According to the head of the region, the man should be rewarded for this.



I think this deserves an award. I thank everyone who is guarding our security these days, and the residents of border areas for their perseverance and endurance.

Starovoit said.


Meanwhile, according to the TG channel "Two Majors", combat veterans have already collected Drones "an impressive prize." The channel also suggests establishing a prize on behalf of caring people and entrepreneurs for drones shot down with guns in border areas. Especially since in the border areas there are hunting rifles in almost every home, and in the same Kursk region, hunting has been banned for two years. But not for drones. So open a hunt for drones, and hand in the downed UAVs for spare parts, as proof of a successful "hunt."

Meanwhile, soldiers at the front have long been talking about the need to arm themselves with shotguns with shotgun cartridges. This is the most reliable way to shoot down virtually any drone.

          Argon hi, the article does not indicate what type of drone it was (if I'm not mistaken), if it was with grenades to drop or FPV then yes there was a risk, but if it was a scout with a camera then the man only risked being filmed for "memory".

            And it’s no longer possible to fly out calmly - everyone is running to complain that “ah ah ah ah, our drone is flying.” If they even start shooting... It’s okay where the sky is closed, but in the Volga region everyone is also scared...

          It is necessary to more widely attract hunters and, especially, stand-up athletes to work in the militia. And if you also set up a drone breakthrough warning service for them, the effectiveness of such militias will increase significantly! And definitely - official status for men.

            Have you seen the booth? Firstly, the direction of departure is known, the speed is also known... and secondly... the trajectory does not change, the target is contrasting. So the drone is much more difficult to hit. Thirdly, the times have come when FPV drones attack the fighter directly - and the stand-up fighter has not trained for the fact that a plate can blow his head off request

      But all this time, the nuts of the weapons legislation have been (and continue to be) tightened until they stop. wink
      Some kind of cognitive dissonance: hunting is prohibited, and then some hunter is rummaging around with a gun. It’s up to you to take off your cross, or put on your panties.
      However, I wouldn’t be surprised: he’ll be brought to trial for being on the property with a weapon for illegal hunting, well, a little later. I remember at one time it was fashionable to punish for transporting weapons in a car on public roads - like, does the road go through farmland? Well, that’s it, the poacher matters.

    What is needed there is not a gun, but something like a light double-barreled pistol with shotgun shells. Now FPV drones are used to hunt each person individually, and this should be a light weapon of last resort, it won't have time to shoot more than twice anyway. And a full-fledged multi-shot shotgun with pellets is one per unit.

      Do you understand internal ballistics?
      The fastest burning powders (including progressive ones) are used in smoothbores, because resistance and actual sealing are provided only by the inertia of the fractional charge, the shock absorber, also known as a wad (felt or plastic container) and cardboard gaskets (seal). Pressures do not exceed 12 gauge 650 atmospheres according to the standard (76mm magnums are slightly higher). Therefore, with a short barrel you won’t really get anything other than flash.
      For comparison, in the PM the pressure reaches 1150 atmospheres. Part of the energy is spent in this case to drive the bullet into the rifling

          Well, the ballistics of shooting is still different. I described the differences of smoothbore above briefly. Actually, for shooting, gunpowder is divided by progressiveness, burning rate and dependence of burning rate on pressure. There are actually quite multi-level formulas, which in fact are solved by a numerical method only. But only exclusively at the design stage... the actual tables are already compiled on the basis of shooting and actual measurements

      The altitude and direction are not indicated there. It's one thing if he flies towards you. And it’s completely different if he is on a flight course at a reasonable altitude and at a speed not like the MiG.

      There are a lot of hunters here, and therefore many people know that our ordinary ducks sometimes do such things, that where are the drones... They squeeze between the pellets... laughing
      And for lovers of snipe hunting, a drone should generally be no faster than a weather balloon in calm weather. lol

      So, of course, no one is going to rearm from Kalashnikovs to shotguns, but in my opinion, “shot shooters” should now be on the staffing table in the same way as machine gunners are represented.
      Machine guns first made their loudest statement in the First World War against crowds of people staggering across the field on foot and on horseback. Apparently, the time has come for shotguns to make their presence known.

      By the way, a question for weapons historians. Has anyone tried to marry a machine gun with a shotgun yet? It would probably be very effective against drones.

        In Russia they make guns with barrels of the following sizes:
        12 gauge - 18,2–18,7 mm;
        16th - 17–17,25 mm;
        20th - 15,7–15,95 mm;
        28th - 14–14,25 mm;
        32nd - 12,5–12,75 mm.

        Conventional hunting rifles are designed to shoot at a distance of 35 meters. When using regular shot, an experienced hunter can hit a bird located at a distance of 50 meters from him.

          I’ve known this since I was about the age when I stopped falling and dropping the gun from the recoil - my father took it hunting since childhood.

          I'm about a friend.
          Not with a hunting cartridge, but some kind of tricky one. The issues of automation and supply of ammunition, again, are to be decided... Our Kulibins have room to think - the field is not plowed.

          One of our famous gunsmiths said on TV that usually it is not the cartridge that is made for the weapon, but the weapon for the cartridge. For me, who understands more about the use of weapons than about their design, then this became a revelation. Although, in principle, everything is logical.
          So let our clever people at the design bureau speculate.
          And I, for example, like the idea itself. Well, maybe like the large-caliber anti-aircraft artillery in the Great Patriotic War, firing fragmentation and creating a “cloud” of fragments... Let it not be hunting shot, of course, but something else, but similar in principle, creating a “cloud”. How much does a drone really need, after all, if they put nets on them like carp?

              Is this a shotgun? I've never seen anything like this. And if he shoots hunting ones, then he’s probably of little use against unmanned aerial vehicles. To drive jerboas with gophers across the steppe. lol

              There must be something else here. Somehow some science fiction stories are spinning in my head, but to tell you... Well, I’m not a designer!... request
              In my Manilovism, this is something like a quadruple anti-aircraft "Maxim". Well, if it’s portable, then there’s a crew of three people, a frame.

        Bars/Sunar are our progressive nitroglycerin powders. They have 1,5+ times greater density than the classic Falcon (especially since the latter is highly recommended not to be compacted). Burning rates due to pressure are much higher. This frees up space in the sleeve for an additional wad, which absorbs pressure surges, preventing the pellets/buckshot themselves from being deformed. To do this, they are additionally sprinkled with starch to preserve their spherical shape, i.e. less energy loss. Buckshots are sometimes placed in matches so that they stand clearly one above the other. Yes, there are a lot of tricks. For example, because Mostly brass cartridges are used for such cartridges (the papers burn out after 1-2 shots, and the rolling die immediately) - they were drilled out under the bullet or several powders of the same P-3 or from construction D25 cartridges were placed under the boxer
        ZY The cartridges are purely individually assembled. Powder should ONLY be weighed and shot specifically for your barrel (length and noise). In this case, from the available TsKIBSOO guns, they were suitable, because. in fact sports. Their Izhey - 27 is good, especially 27-E1C (I may be confusing the abbreviation, it was a long time ago)

            In general, she was called "knitting". Brass is good because it can be rolled longer. And I wrote above - either they drilled it out or poured gunpowder into the boxer. For a falcon it is not critical, but for a sunar/leopard it is quite critical. In general, brass is enough for 5-6 shots. This is more than plastic and especially paper.

            Well, how can I say - a good manually reloaded cartridge will be better than any factory one. And first of all, you know what the shot will be and whether you will take it or not. There is an unspoken rule in hunting - no wounded animals. A properly assembled 2-coil can quite easily take a goose from 50-60 on the fly. Due to good and sharp scree. At the same 0-le at 60m very often wounded animals come if they are factory-made.

              I went through all these manipulations in the 80-90s, I had an IZH-27M with permanent chokes and a book from the 50s on loading cartridges. In general, similar literature from those years is surprisingly informative - excellent drawings, clear language and structure of the text. I selected an individual cartridge for each barrel (choke).
              Now all this is not relevant: the chokes are replaceable, there are attachments in the form of a barrel extension, the calibers are mainly magnum and supermagnum - for every taste. But that’s not the point: I don’t see shotguns as a means of combating drones, literally at all. It doesn’t work according to its performance characteristics, something else needs to be fabricated.

                Damage to any blade and the drone is already destabilized... Therefore, 4 to zero IMHO is the case. As an option, a bundle of wolves + buckshot.

                In fact, PTRs did not suffer from effectiveness at the beginning of the war either. But they provided psychological support.

                Well, for those for whom this is shooting, yes, but for those who live professionally in the trade, everything is the old fashioned way. And never before has a shot depended on the barrel, and not on the cartridge. 99% of weapons are chambered for a cartridge in one way or another. 1% is breaking arms laughing

        Paraffin is more suitable for buckshot, because it has time to harden, or they first poured it into the sawn sleeve, and then inserted it into the finished one after pressing it out. Yes, it has less density, the same starch has 1,5 g/cm3 (paraffin 0.95) - but it holds worse, because works as a liquid rather than a bulk material. Therefore, any fraction is only starch.

    March 17 has already become a black day for Belgorod: at least two victims of the barbaric shelling of the city and 11 wounded civilians are known.

    One of the victims, we recall, is a 16-year-old girl.

    The second victim was a man; he was in the parking lot at the time of the shooting. He died from his wounds on the spot before the ambulance arrived.

    11 people were injured of varying degrees of severity (8 people in hospital). In the most serious condition is a woman with a shrapnel wound to the chest, says Governor Vyacheslav Gladkov.

    Various destructions were detected in 36 apartments in 17 apartment buildings, 9 private households, and three business entities. Damage to 12 vehicles was recorded.

    ....shot down a Ukrainian drone with a hunting rifle

    What is important here is not what he shot down, but what he shot down with a hunting rifle. This suggests that smoothbore weapons with buckshot can be quite effective weapons against drones, and that such weapons should pay attention to the DoD.
    After all, hunters shoot down geese or other game high in flight, so why not use buckshot from a smooth-bore weapon against drones!???
