THE PACKAGING

The RWS brand has optimised its packaging for rifle ammunition: all hunting and sporting RWS rifle cartridges will soon be available in more resource-efficient, compact and generally consumer-friendly packaging.

The new packaging needs less paper/cardboard and therefore takes up a smaller space in your ammunition pouch, while still providing clearly visible information about the many and unique RWS hunting bullets. But the immediately recognisable look of the premium RWS brand has remained unchanged.

The new packs of hunting rifle ammunition by RWS are now equipped with a transparent panel on the front of the packaging to showcase the unique RWS bullets. What’s more, all packs of RWS rifle ammunition will now be labelled with key product information, such as ballistic data or game recommendations. Essential information about the bullet/product line name, calibre and bullet weight remain as always on the slim transparent side of the packaging. In future, the ballistic data will be printed on the package label along with the game recommendation for hunting products. This information is also available on many other materials or media, for instance on the RWS website at

The ballistic data uses the metric system for accurate breakpoint corrections or the use of fast reticle adjustments and ballistic reticles
