Embodiment Construction

[0037] This projectile is called sub-calibrated as it has a diameter less than that of the barrel it is shot from, with the aim of not damaging the weapon's barrel, reducing the diameter so that it incides in the air layers it traverses more easily. This projectile is situated within a plastic block which makes it better fit in the barrel and avoid the projectile from rubbing against the weapon's walls.

[0038] As may be seen in the aforementioned figures, the projectile (1) of the invention comprises a body with a front part (2), a totally hollow rear part (3), a rod (4) mounted in the front part which is held in place under pressure and passes axially and continuously through a chamber (5) located in the front part (2). The rod (4) terminates in a conically shaped tip (6). The external face of the tip has the form of a cap (7) or convex curve. Due to the tip's (6) taper, it fits into the mouth of the chamber (5), as shown clearly in FIG. 1. The body (1) of the projectile is cylindr...

Abstract

A projectile (1) is composed of a body divided into a front part (2) and a rear part (3), the latter being hollow. An axial rod (4) is embedded and fixed in the front part under pressure. The axial rod (4) terminates in a hard tip (6), which is located towards the front, and which is conical in shape and terminates in the form of a cap (7). The tip (6) closes the front end of an air chamber (5) positioned axially in the front part (2) of the body (1) of the projectile. Upon impact, the tip (6) is displaced towards the inside of the chamber (5), which causes it to be compressed, thus converting the projectile (1) into pellets. The body of the projectile (1) is cylindrical and has helicoidal external grooves. The body is made of lead with high antimony content. The projectile is arranged within a container, which retains it and acts additionally as a shock-absorbing element and stopper for the gases generated upon firing.

Description

[0001] This is a Continuation-in-Part application of Ser. No. 10 / 220,339, Dec. 27, 2002, which is the National Stage of International Application No. PCT / ES01 / 00502, filed Dec. 21, 2001.BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION [0002] 1. Field of the Invention [0003] The present invention relates to a sub-calibrated projectile (as it has a smaller diameter than the barrel of the gun in which it is used), rotating, as it rotates when it is shot at 3000 rpm and compressed air explosive as will be explained hereunder. [0004] The object of the invention is to provide shooters and hunters with a projectile capable of reaching twice the distance of all known projectiles, due to its gyroscopic stability and being explosive, with exceptional stopping power which has not yet been constructed in any world nation. [0005] To avoid deformation in the projectile on explosion with pressures of up to 900 kilos cm2, it has a lead base to which 2% antimony is added. Its extraordinary scope is due to the projectile...
