  • Patent number: 7331294
    Abstract: A rifled slug is provided with a metal head (1) and a plastic rear part (2), which is made as a single piece from a pin-shaped front part (5), with a rod-shaped middle part (6) joined to the rear of the front part, and with a plunger-shaped rear part (7). The front part (5) is inserted from the rear into a pocket hole of the metal head (1) and is joined thereto in a captive manner. This improves a rifled slug of the aforementioned type by increasing the precision, i.e. reducing the dispersion in the target. To this end, the front part (5) is provided in the form of a hollow body and is joined to the middle part (6) via a predetermined breaking point (14), whereby when shooting, the middle part (6) slides into the cavity of the front part (5) until the upper surface (19) of the rear part (7) strikes the lower surface (20) of the front part (5).
