112 CARTRIDGE FOR LIGHT-WEIGHTED PROJECTILES US12903064 2010-10-12 US20120085259A1 2012-04-12 Pedro de Oliveira Cronemberger
A cartridge that can fire a light-weighted projectile, producing a pressure curve of the propellant gases similar to the pressure curve generated by the shot of a heavy weighted lead-core projectile. The cartridge propels the light-weighted projectile together with a capsule, which contains an inert load of high density metal powder. The capsule is divided in multiple parts, which disassemble when it leaves the firearm muzzle, spreading the metal powder in the air. The metal powder increases the mass which is accelerated by the propellant gases, keeping the pressure curve high enough to cycle a self-loading firearm mechanism. The metal powder consists of very thin particles which spreads and decelerates rapidly in the air, causing a controllable level of danger to personnel.

117 Practice ammunition US11063225 2000-05-11 USRE40482E1 2008-09-09 Detlef (Ted) Haeselich
A practice ammunition projectile comprises a head which bursts when the projectile strikes a target and contains a marking agent which optically indicates the point of impact after the head has burst. The marking agent consists of several chemical components (7, 8) which are each contained in separately breakable compartments (4, 5) within a burstable hood at the head of the projectile. When the compartments (4, 5) break open the compartments combine and undergo a chemical reaction which creates an optical mark. The hood is formed of an optically transparent material to enable the trajectory of the projectile to be tracked. An ammunition cartridge comprising a hollow projectile and a cartridge case with a propellant charge, the projectile comprising a projectile head designed to withstand the forces applied when the projectile is fired from a gun and designed to burst when the projectile strikes a target. A marking agent is disposed in the head for optically marking the impact with the target after the head has burst. The marking agent includes a plurality of chemical components each received in a separate frangible compartment in the head. These components are mixed and react chemically with each other when the compartments break up, causing the mixed components to luminesce. The compartments are designed to be broken up by the initial acceleration and/or the centrifugal forces on the projectile when the projectile is fired from a gun, while retaining the chemical components in the head. The components are therefore mixed at the time the projectile is fired from a gun and luminesce by the time the projectile strikes the target.
