Product Description
The Kynoch INERT .240 Flanged Copper Round is a rare collectible cartridge, historically used in British single-shot and double rifles. Manufactured by Kynoch, a renowned British ammunition maker, this round features a distinctive flanged (rimmed) design, making it suitable for break-action rifles. The inert designation indicates that this specific round is safe for handling and display, as it contains no live primer or propellant.
The .240 caliber round was originally designed for medium-sized game hunting, particularly popular in Africa and India during the late 19th and early 20th centuries. The copper bullet showcases the craftsmanship of early ammunition technology, characterized by its smooth finish and precise engineering. Collectors prize this round not only for its historical value but also for its role in the development of hunting ammunition.
Today, the Kynoch INERT .240 Flanged Copper Round is a sought-after item among vintage ammunition collectors. Its combination of aesthetic appeal, historical significance, and association with classic British hunting rifles makes it a standout piece in any collection. Though no longer in active production, it continues to represent an important chapter in the evolution of ammunition
