Partial Fragmentation Bullet

Abstract

A partial fragmentation bullet comprising a nose core, which forms a fragmenting portion of the partial fragmentation bullet, and a rear core, which forms a penetration portion of the partial fragmentation bullet. The nose core and the rear core are made of materials having the same level of hardness. This level of hardness is in the Brinell hardness range.

1 . A partial fragmentation bullet ( 1 ), comprising:
 a nose core ( 2 ), wherein said nose core forms a fragmenting portion of said partial fragmentation bullet ( 1 ); and   a rear core ( 3 ), wherein said rear core forms a penetration portion of said partial fragmentation bullet ( 1 ), further wherein said nose core ( 2 ) and said rear core ( 3 ) are made of materials having the same level of hardness, and wherein said level of hardness is in the Brinell hardness range.   
   
   
       2 . A partial fragmentation bullet according to  claim 1 , wherein said level of hardness of said nose core ( 2 ) and said rear core ( 3 ) is a maximum Brinnel hardness of 200. 
   
   
       3 . A partial fragmentation bullet according to  claim 2 , wherein said nose core ( 2 ) and said rear core ( 3 ) are made of the same materials. 
   
   
       4 . A partial fragmentation bullet according to  claim 3 , wherein said nose core ( 2 ) and said rear core ( 3 ) are made of tin.
