Strike depth

The diagram below displays a cartridge case that has been shot. The indent, where the firing pin has hit the cartridge, is called a strike.

It is important to measure the strike depth on the cartridge because this is the point where the primer is activated.

A minimum strike depth is necessary to transmit sufficient energy to the primer to cause its ignition and ensure that the cartridge does not misfire.

The ideal strike depth for an ELEY cartridge is between 0.012–0.015 in. This depth can be measured using a strike depth gauge.

Batch numbers

Every box of ELEY ammunition has a specific number code printed on the end panel of the box.

The code relates to the grade of the product, manufacturing year, the loader on which it was produced, the batch number, and the average velocity of the ammunition across four barrels during the proofing process.

10 = Loaded product 26 = Year of manufacture 04 = Loader number 244 = Batch number for loader 1045 = Mean velocity across four barrels
