RWS is one of the few brands that manufactures its hunting rifles entirely. From the core to the scabbard, every component is precisely controlled. This ensures ballistic consistency, predictable expansion and optimal weight retention, which is vital in real hunting.
1. RWS tip types and their behaviour
- 1.
- Evolution® (Power Bonding): Deep penetration, controlled deformation. Ideal for large game and heavy species.
- Evolution® (Power Bonding): Deep penetration, controlled deformation.
- Speed Tip Professional: Polymer tip for long-range stalking. Flat trajectory and fast expansion.
- Doppelkern: Double core. Initial fragmentation + subsequent retention. Recommended for enclosed bush hunting.
- Doppelkern: Dual core.
- UNI Classic / Professional: Hard + soft core. Optimal for large species and demanding shots.
- H-Mantel: High fragmentation. Ideal for small game or population control.
- H-Mantel: High fragmentation.
- Driven Hunt: Semi-spherical soft tip. Immediate expansion, great stopping power. Designed for driven hunt.
- Driven Hunt.
- KS (Kegelspitz): Solid conical tip. Superior precision and penetration. Perfect for selective hunting and precision stalking.
- Precision and superior penetration.

2. Ballistic Coefficient and Trajectory
.The ballistic coefficient (BC) measures aerodynamic efficiency. Projectiles such as KS and UNI Professional offer flat trajectories and excellent energy conservation over long distances, key in technical hunting and shooting over 200 metres.

4. Velocity and Energy
RWS cartridges are optimised for muzzle velocities in excess of 850-950 m/s, with impact energies suitable for ethical hunting throughout Europe.
Example: KS in 7x64 generates up to 3,500 joules at 100m with surgical precision. Ideal for stalking roe deer, fallow deer or red deer.
