Analyzes of terminal ballistics in big game shooting

U istraživanju su obrađeni balistički parametri koji su od utjecaja na učinkovitost odstrela krupne divljači. Terensko istraživanje provedeno je na području središnje Hrvatske tijekom dviju lovnih godina. Kako bi se olakšalo prikupljanje podataka, izrađen je obrazac u koji su se upisivali traženi elementi. Za analizu je prikupljen dovoljan broj terenskih uzoraka dviju vrsta krupne divljači (jelen obični i divlja svinja). Podaci su prikupljeni od strane kolega i mene samoga. Ključni elementi prilikom prikupljanja bili su tjelesna masa jedinke, kalibar, tip zrna i gramaža, udaljenost s koje je izvršen odstrel, mjesto pogotka te vrijeme proteklo od nastrijela do uginuća. Terenski uzorci obrađeni su u programima Statistika i Excell. Dobiveni podaci opisani su i predočeni u radu te su iznesena mišljenja i zaključci. Rezultati istraživanja doprinijet će boljem razumijevanju problematike utjecaja kalibra, tipa zrna i mjesta pogotka na brzinu ugibanja divljači.The research deals with ballistic parameters that affect the efficiency of large game shooting. Field research was conducted in Central Croatia over two hunting years. In order to facilitate the collection of data, a form was created in which the required elements were entered. A sufficient number of field samples of two species of large game (red deer and wild boar) were collected for analysis. The data was collected by colleagues and myself. The key elements in the collection were body weight of the individual, caliber, type of grain and weight, distance from which the shooting was performed, place of hit and time elapsed from shooting to death. Field samples were processed in the programs Statistics and Excell. The obtained data are described and presented in the paper, and opinions and conclusions are presented. The results of the research will contribute to a better understanding of the issue of the influence of caliber, grain type and location of the impact on the rate of game death
