Hello,

I have this projectile in my collection but it is missing the ballistic cap.
Does anybody have pictures or drawings with dimensions of this projectile because maybe i want to make a cap myself.
Or does anybody has a spare cap for sale?

Thank you

I have a projectile that has a cap that isn't attached. My projo doesn't have a rotating band, so I could use the measurements of the rotating band. Ill take some photos and post of my cap and body.
 
Hi,


I think it's the 100lb M112. see "Handbook of ballistic and engineering data for ammunition volume 3"
