A projectile for use in a shooting application is disclosed. In one embodiment, the projectile includes a base. The projectile also includes a body coupled to the base, wherein the body is hollow and is used to contain a payload material tailored for a specific shooting application. The projectile further includes a threaded tip coupled to the body. The threaded tip has a stem and a threaded portion, and is threaded to body to be removably coupled to the body. The threaded tip is made using a tip material tailored for the specific shooting application.

A bullet (100), having: a main body (102) with a bore (106) bounded by a sidewall (124); an insert (104) that is disposed in the bore and that has longitudinal splines (460) configured to form a longitudinal flute (4620 in the insert and to provide radial support for the sidewall of the bore. A leading end (466) of the flute is open.

A method and system are presented for producing ballistic projectiles from bio-carbon by heating the bio-carbon prior to pressing the bio-carbon into a die to form the projectile. If fired from a munitions cartridge to land on the ground or in water, the bio-carbon projectile can break down and decompose to provide environmental benefits to the land or water.

A dissolvable glass projectile for a firearm is molded from dissolvable glass for the ammunitions and firearms industry. The dissolvable glass projectile may be molded into different sizes or geometry based on firearm and user preference. A mixture of chemicals components are heated and melted and then poured into a mold and is allowed to cool to a solid that can be handled.
