A cartridge to be fired through a barrel comprises a cartridge body with a maximum outer diameter, and a removable and replaceable driving band with an outer diameter greater than the diameter of the cartridge body. The driving band is positioned on the cartridge body such that it is the only part of the cartridge that engages the barrel through which it is fired.

In an ammunition training round having a crushable nose section, a flash system which makes an impact more visible to the user in the air or on land when the round hits a ground target. In place of a fuze ignition, the flash system utilizes incendiary energetic pellets comprising ignition pellets which burst in flames when impacted. The round may also have a nose area with a lower portion plastic plug and an upper portion fuze ogive containing the ignition pellets so that when the round impacts the ground at an angle, the upper portion of the nose area snaps off and exposes its ignition pellets to ignite from the impact.

A less lethal projectile for use with a shotgun shell is manufactured from a tubular sleeve, having a quantity of pellets contained therein and which is separated from any remaining volume of the sleeve. The remaining volume of the sleeve is folded over the quantity of pellets to provide a double walled projectile which is suitable for use with a shotgun shell to provide a less lethal projectile.
