Abstract

A projectile, especially for hand and long firearms, including a projectile body having a longitudinal axis, a front face and a rear face, a deformation cavity extends partially into the projectile body at the front face thereof and a continuous axial bore is provided in the projectile body in communicating relationship with the rear face and the deformation cavity. The projectile body has a wall thickness in the region surrounding the deformation cavity which is smaller than the wall thickness in the region surrounding the axial bore. A cap is initially disposed in the region of the front face of the projectile body for covering at least the deformation cavity, the cap being separated from the projectile body within the barrel of the firearm during firing of the projectile and exiting from the barrel in front of the projectile body.
