ABSTRACT:
A projectile comprises a tubular body and a sabot or impact base connected to the rear portion. The tubular body is connected to the sabot by radially extending pins, and the rear face of the body is spaced from a circular shoulder of the sabot by a distance equal to, or larger than, the diameter of the pins. To ensure a transfer of the spin of the sabot to the body, the rear face of the body is provided with a corrugation, such as teeth, or a knurling, which, at the discharge and after the pins are sheared off, digs into the surface of the circular shoulder.
