Abstract

See full text

The present invention is directed toward an expansion projectile capable of achieving complete expansion at a subsonic speed. The projectile consists of a malleable core and a jacket of more structural integrity. Complete expansion is achieved through the use of a guaranteed misalignment of jacket scoring in relation to premade cuts within the projectile's core. Expansion is further facilitated through use of a gradient density bearing insert which is contained within the core. Upon impact of the projectile at its target the bearing insert will rupture and expand. This will guarantee complete disintegration of the projectile.
