Chapter 234 Rifled gun test firing

Under the expectation of the soldiers, the rifled guns were quickly issued to every sharpshooter.

Rifled guns are different from smoothbore guns. There are five spirals inside the barrel. If you look at the muzzle with your eyes, you can see that the rotating spirals converge into a dark singularity.

"This is a rifled gun. The muzzle feels a bit small." The orcs had seen a [-]mm large-caliber smoothbore before, but this time they saw a [-]mm rifled muzzle, showing suspicious expressions.

A large caliber is justice, and a long range is truth.

I don't know when this sentence spread in the army, leading to a common understanding among the orcs - a large caliber is awesome.

"Each person freely test-fires five bullets."

"Report sir, isn't five rounds too small, can't we have more?"

"No, the bullets are not enough, don't waste them." Ivan stared angrily, and replied to these orcs who wanted to shoot more.

Military factories turned out thousands of rounds every day, including buckshot for smoothbore guns and Minie rounds for rifled guns.

Apportioned down, the number of daily training shots for soldiers is really not much.

After Ivan got the rifled gun, needless to say, he had already lay down on the ground, adjusted his emotions with his breath, and when his emotions stabilized, he fed back his breath to make his hands less trembling.

It was a talent, and he had seen the advantages of racial talent when it came to musketry.

All awakened orcs can learn to finely control their bodies in a short period of time, reducing the frequency of body tremors.

Sometimes it can even make your hands feel like iron blocks, without moving at all.

At this time, if you estimate the ballistic drop point by hand feel, the probability of headshot at 70 meters is very high.

After a while, Ivan felt that the world became quiet, with only a 100-meter target in his eyes.

The reason why the 70-meter target is not selected is because the rifled gun is a new gun. If the new gun cannot blow the head of the [-]-meter target, then it is meaningless.

Nourishing.

The gunpowder chamber burns, and the violent thrust squeezes the Minie bullet forward, and the lead body begins to deform due to extrusion, and rotates rapidly against the rifling, and drills out of the muzzle with a whoosh, breaking the air in a spiral form.

In the next second, there was a hole in the heart of the [-]-meter target in the distance.

There is no need for the orc to confirm himself, Ivan knows that he has hit the bull's-eye, and it is a red circle.

"There are four rounds left. This time we shoot at 1.5 meters and [-] meters." Ivan treated this new gun very carefully. It will be a powerful weapon on the battlefield in the future.

Bang bang bang, gunshots sounded around him, and the elite orcs all hit the target.

Ivan observed other people's targets with perfect eyesight. From 100 meters to 150 meters, the target was shot. Except for a dozen orcs who missed the red heart, the other orcs shot nothing and hit the red heart.

Ivan, who wanted to shoot a 150-meter target, was stunned for a moment, and said with a smile: "It seems that I underestimated the power of a rifled gun. Shooting a 200-meter target is no problem."

The people around me are all sharpshooters, so it is not difficult to hit the target with a gun, but the scary thing is that none of the guns missed the target, which shows that the trajectory of the rifled gun is very stable.

You must know that the shooting of musket guns before was very metaphysical. When the bullet exits the muzzle, it may change at any time.

This sudden change is explained in detail in the physics book. Ivan is not a blind-headed orc. He never misses Alan's class. He carefully absorbs Alan's teachings and understands what aerodynamics is. The bullet spins and changes in the air.

The bullet starts along the rifling line, which increases the lateral force and just enhances the rotation ability of the bullet. At the same time, the conical arc bullet perfectly utilizes the principles of air flow and other principles to increase aerodynamic stability so that the bullet will not lose stability.

Ivan collected himself and couldn't help laughing out loud.

It's really weird to recall physics knowledge in my mind before shooting. In the past, Ivan only thought about the farm work in the farmland.

Learning those physics knowledge will not make the bullet more obedient, the key is to rely on his hands to stabilize and make the shooting error smaller.

"Try to choose a target of 200 meters..."

Ivan changed the target and chose the 200-meter target.

After breathing calmly for ten seconds, he ignored the bursts of gunshots coming from his ears and pressed the trigger.

boom!
200-meter target, seven rings!
This time he missed the center of the red circle, but Ivan was very happy to hit the target.

"Rifle guns, as expected!"

There are not many bullets in five rounds. In order not to waste bullets, the orcs spend a long time aiming at each bullet, feel the trajectory of the bullet, feel the wind direction and speed in the air, and precisely adjust the angle of the next shot.

After a shot, the orcs shot all of today's test shots, and got up to brag about how good they are for their companions.

"Haha, I don't know if you have seen that I just hit the heart of the 300-meter target!"

"It's luck, I didn't hit the heart in four rounds!"

"By the way, does anyone know the longest range of a rifled gun? I just shot a part of the 500-meter target." Ivan shot the last bullet and ventured to shoot 500 meters, but unexpectedly succeeded.

This made his heart pound, and he felt that his marksmanship still had huge room for improvement.

Among the orcs, a young man who shot a 400-meter target wanted to show off, but when he heard that Chief Ivan had hit a 500-meter target, he lost his good mood for a while.

"Why don't you look at Mr. Allen, his marksmanship is top-notch." The orcs turned to Allen without an answer.

Allen's marksmanship is very good. In the last city defense battle, the 300-meter headshot left a legendary record. So far, no orc has broken the 300-meter headshot record with a smoothbore gun, let alone the moving target headshot record, which is so terrifying.

After studying physics, sharpshooters all know how incredible it is to shoot a 300-meter target with a musket. Anyway, Allen is as great as a god in their eyes.

At this moment, Allen stood up, took the rifled gun brought up by the orc, filled it with gunpowder and bullets, and slowly raised the gun horizontally without lying on the ground, quite confident.
