1. In a process for charging an explosive projectile having a base plug with a fluid mixture comprising a molten liquid explosive and a heavy, brisant and powerful explosive in granular, nonmolten form, the imprOvement which comprises rotating the projectile about its longitudinal axis during charging and deflecting the nonmolten explosive particles toward the periphery of the projectile by the action of a surface provided on said base plug.

7. In a process for charging hollow charge explosive projectiles with a fluid mixture comprising a molten liquid explosive and a heavy, brisant and powerful explosive in granular nonmolten form, said projectile having a forward end and a primer end and including an inner sheath for the hollow charge, the improvement which comprises rotating the projectile, disposed vertically, about its longitudinal axis during charging and transferring the particles of nonmolten explosive from the axis to the periphery of the charge to cause an impoverishment in the concentration of nonmolten explosive particles in the axial part of the zone lying between the apex of the conical inner sheath and the primer end of the charge, with a corresponding enrichment at the periphery of that zone.
