Assembled in the base of the cartridge case is an electric primer and a black powder propelling charge. The remaining space is occupied by a dummy charge consisting of an inert charge loaded in a metal can. The cartridge is equipped with a shunting clip over the base to protect the primer from accidental firing during storage, shipping, and handling. |
