Abstract:
The present invention includes a device for determining the force necessary for the separation of a bullet from an ammunition cartridge comprising a chamber housing having central bore extending from a lower housing end to an upper housing end and terminating at a upper aperture, wherein the central bore comprises a chamber diameter adapted to accept an ammunition cartridge and that the bullet partially extends from the upper aperture; a frustaconical shape shoulder in the central bore at the upper housing end to reduce the chamber diameter to mate to an ammunition cartridge shoulder; a neck that connects the upper aperture to the frustaconical shape shoulder adapted to accept an ammunition cartridge neck; a cartridge retention lip within the upper aperture adapted to contact an ammunition cartridge bullet aperture; a chamber mount adapted to connect the chamber housing and a testing device; a bullet securing device comprising a bullet securing end to secure the bullet and a bullet securing device mount adapted to connect to the testing device; a moving mechanism to move the bullet securing device away from the chamber housing; a sensor in communication with the moving mechanism to measure a force exerted by the moving mechanism; and a display in communication with the sensor to display and or record the force.
