Bullet vs Cartridge

A common gun terminology mistake: Bullet vs Cartridge

In a recent tour of the Black Hills Ammunition factory, GunTalkTV has a chance to talk with Jeff Hoffman, President of Black Hills Ammunition.  Jeff does a great job of explaining the difference between a bullet and a cartridge.

A cartridge is a complete unit of assembled ammunition. It is made up of 4 components:

1. Case
2. Primer
3. Propellant
4. Bullet
