Question [CLICK ON ANY CHOICE TO KNOW THE RIGHT ANSWER]
What caused the bullet to move from the chamber into the barrel?
A
Pressure from the expanding gun powder
B
Firing pin pushes it down the barrel
C
The trigger manually moves the bullet into the barrel
D
Pressure from the ignited primer powder
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -When the firing pin in a firearm strikes the primer, it ignites the powder inside the case, creating an explosion that generates a large amount of pressure, often exceeding 50, 000 PSI (344.7 MPa). This pressure in turn pushes the bullet out of the case mouth and into the barrel.

Detailed explanation-2: -A residue of lead, primer materials, carbon, and other materials from the barrel that are transferred onto the outermost surface of the target by the bullet as it passes through. A tapered constriction of a shotgun barrel’s bore at the muzzle end. The resulting impact of the cartridge case with the ejector.

Detailed explanation-3: -PURPOSE OF RIFLINGS – is to impart a motion of rotation to a bullet during its passage inside the barrel in order to insure gyroscopic stability in the flight, and so that it will travel nose-on towards the target.
