ABSTRACT:
A bullet for muzzle loading black powder rifles having an elongated cylindrical metal body. The metal body includes a front paraboloidal segment and a recessed base. A rear expansion band for initially guiding the bullet into the rifled bore and for tightly sealing the explosive gases upon firing of the rifle. A front rifling band which is cut by the lands of the rifling to cause rotation about the longitudinal axis of the bullet. An intermediate knife-like cleaning band which removes residue from the rifled bore as the bullet is propelled outwardly by the explosive gases.
