PROJECTILE WITH ENHANCED BALLISTICS
The present invention provides a projectile device and a method of manufacture of a projectile device and in particular to a pistol bullet and a rifle bullet and method of manufacture of same. In one embodiment, the projectile apparatus has a cylindrical body portion having a diameter, a front nose section tapering from a most proximal point of the projectile to the cylindrical body portion, and a rear tail section connected to the body portion and extending to the most distal point of the projectile, in which the front nose portion comprises a plurality of twisting depressions forming troughs.
High spin projectile apparatus comprising components made by additive manufacture
A method of making a projectile apparatus is provided that includes making one or components of the apparatus using an additive manufacture technique such as 3-D printing or laser-aided additive manufacture. The projectile apparatus can have a projectile, a propellant, and one or more optional components such as a wading, a sabot, and an intermediary device. The projectile can be fired through a barrel having a smooth bore. Additive manufacture methods can be used that involve forming components from superalloys having nanoparticles incorporated therein. The projectile apparatus can convert gas pressure or gas velocity into a high rate of projectile spin. The projectile has long-range accuracy due to a high or sustainable velocity and high rate of spin.

Projectile Apparatus For Smooth Bore Barrels
A projectile apparatus is provided that includes a projectile, a propellant, and optional components such as a wading, a sabot, and an intermediary device. The projectile can be fired through a barrel having a smooth bore. A sabot is provided that can include molded features, for example, a base portion and a plurality of petal portions defining, in-part, a volume for accommodating a projectile. The sabot and wadding can include molded features that control and direct gases produced by the propellant. The apparatus can convert gas pressure or gas velocity into a high rate of projectile spin. The projectile has long-range accuracy due to a high or sustainable velocity and high rate of spin.

NON-LETHAL PAYLOAD PROJECTILE
A non-lethal projectile formed by a front shell, with a hemispherical nose and a cylindrical shaft, and a base at the tail. The hemispherical nose has three or more bi-planar grooves, originating along the junction of the hemispherical nose and cylindrical shaft, extending toward the nose in an inward whorled manner, and terminating around the apex of the hemisphere. The grooves cause the projectile to spin, thereby creating a stabilizing gyroscopic effect when launched. The projectile's base has a domed shape. The convex inner surface of the dome has a profile complimentary to the hemispherical nose of the shell so that multiple projectiles may nest nose to tail when loaded into a multiple round magazine. The convex tail design moves the center of gravity forward and increases the aerodynamic stability and accuracy of the projectile.
