ABSTRACT:
The sabot bullet has a rearwardly tapered front part and a forwardly tapered rear part converging toward each other and spaced from each other by an integral connecting part. The sabot for the bullet has two mating segments each having complementary shaped tapered front and rear cavity parts converging toward an integral interconnecting part. Each segment has a transverse flat disk portion at the rear of the rear part. The segments form an integral, transverse circular disk which abutts the rear end face of the projectile when the sabot segments are joined about the bullet.
