Abstract: A target assembly that includes a housing in which are mounted a plurality of interceptors made of flexible, energy absorbing material that hang down behind a target face mounted thereon. Preferably, three such interceptors hang from a downwardly, rearwardly sloping rear wall of the housing. A continuous roll of adjacent target faces is mounted in the lower portion of the housing, each successive target face being hooked to the top of the housing for use. The target faces are made of a polymeric material having a color contrasting to the color of the interceptors.

Abstract: The specification discloses a plastic bullet having improved accuracy and reusability. The bullet comprises a projectile, including a body and a stud, and a casing, defining a chamber for closely receiving the projectile stud. The projectile body has a reverse frustoconical shape and a blunt forward end defining a spherical segment depression. A plurality of pockets are defined by the body about its circumference. Both the case chamber wall and the projectile stud include interfitting serrations having different axial spacings to improve compression and releasability during firing. The projectile is hollow having a wall-mass-to-diameter ratio providing an improved gyroscopic effect. The casing includes a thick-wall blast chamber providing improved strength and reusability and enabling the use of high force primers.
