A hybrid ammunition cartridge for a firearm is includes a substantially cylindrical casing defining a body portion having a neck at a forward end and a base at a rearward end, the base including a rim. A projectile is mounted in the neck. Brass is used in the casing at the neck to hold the projectile at the proper crimp. Brass is also used in the rim to house the primer and to provide a surface at which a hook or any suitable mechanism can be used to extract the cartridge from the firearm. The remaining body portion is then manufactured from a composite material having suitable mechanical properties. |
