ABSTRACT:
A tool and corresponding method for removing folds and buckles in the matal of a propellant containment bag, in a round of ammunition, prior to the addition of explosive propellant. The tool includes a plurality of flexible fingers that are inserted into the propellant containment bag through the primer cap aperture. Once inside, the flexible fingers are expanded, pressing the propellant containment bag against the inside of the cartridge case. The tool is advanced to the far end of the propellant containment bag, thereby pulling taut the entire bag. The flexible fingers extend around the tail end of the projectile of the ammunition round, removing folds in the propellant containment bag that may interfere with the dispersion of propellant around the stabilizer fins or other features of the projectile's tail end, when propellant is subsequently added.
