Abstract

A method of making a cartridge, in particular a blank or propellant gas cartridge which has a casing of generally tubular form with a telescopically reverse in-folded star-crimp-closed integral tubular end section, and within which is contained a blank propellant powder charge, with a readily rupturable wad of low heat conductivity initial restraining mass formed between the propellant powder charge and the in-folded telescoping star-crimp-closed end of the casing, in which method the cartridge is formed by front loading a propellant charge and the low-heat-conductivity wad, and then star-crimping and telescopically reverse in-rolling the cartridge casing, after which the recessed in-rolled star-crimped casing is heat sealed.
