Customizable projectile designed to tumble

1 . A projectile, comprising:

a first portion having a first cylindrical portion having a first flat end surface, a section extending from said first cylindrical portion at a first acute angle, and a tip section extending from said section and terminating in a tip;

a second portion having a second cylindrical portion having a second flat end surface;

a trailing portion having a generally frustoconical shape, said trailing portion tapering towards a trailing end of said projectile; and

a post coupling said first cylindrical portion and said second cylindrical portion, said post being in contact with each of said first flat end surface and said second flat end surface, said post being cylindrical and having a post diameter that is less than each of a diameter of said first cylindrical portion and a diameter of said second cylindrical portion;

wherein:

said projectile is configured to tumble upon impact with a target; and

said post is configured to break upon impact with said target.

2 . The projectile of claim 1 , wherein said first cylindrical portion comprises a groove.

3 . The projectile of claim 2 , wherein said second cylindrical portion comprises a groove.

4 . The projectile of claim 1 , wherein a length of said section is proportional to a tumbling characteristic of said projectile, such that increasing said length of said section increases the tumbling characteristic of said projectile.

5 . The projectile of claim 1 , wherein said projectile is configured to create a plurality of channels in said target after impact with said target.

6 . The projectile of claim 1 , further comprising a cartridge.

7 . The projectile of claim 1 , wherein said tip section extends from said section at a second acute angle.

8 . The projectile of claim 7 , wherein said second acute angle is sharper than said first acute angle.

9 . A projectile, comprising:

a first portion having a first flat end surface;

a second portion having a second flat end surface; and

a post coupling said first portion and said second portion at said first flat end surface and said second flat end surface such that at least a portion of each of said first flat end surface and said second flat end surface is exposed;

wherein:

said projectile is configured to tumble upon impact with a target; and

said post is configured to break upon impact with said target.

10 . The projectile of claim 9 , wherein:

said first portion includes a first section adjacent said post, said first section tapering at a first angle; and

a second section adjacent said first section, said second section tapering at a second angle.

11 . The projectile of claim 10 , further comprising a tip section with a tip having a diameter, wherein said diameter is inversely proportional to a tumbling characteristic of said projectile, such that decreasing said diameter of said tip increase said tumbling characteristic of said projectile.

12 . The projectile of claim 11 , further comprising a frustoconical trailing section having a trailing section flat end surface.

13 . The projectile of claim 12 , wherein said projectile terminates at said trailing section flat end surface.

14 . The projectile of claim 9 , wherein said post is cylindrical.

15 . The projectile of claim 9 , wherein said second portion comprises at least one groove.

16 . The projectile of claim 15 , wherein said first portion comprises at least one groove.

17 . A projectile, comprising:

a first portion having a first cylindrical portion having a first flat end surface, a section extending from said first cylindrical portion, and a tip section extending from said section and terminating in a tip;

a second portion having a second cylindrical portion having a second flat end surface; and

a post coupling said first cylindrical portion and said second cylindrical portion, said post being in contact with each of said first flat end surface and said second flat end surface, said post being cylindrical and having a post diameter that is less than each of a diameter of said first cylindrical portion and a diameter of said second cylindrical portion;

wherein:

said projectile is configured to tumble upon impact with a target; and

said post is configured to break upon impact with said target.

18 . The projectile of claim 17 , wherein said projectile is configured to create a plurality of channels in said target after impact with said target.

19 . The projectile of claim 17 , further comprising at least one groove in each of said first portion and said second portion.

20 . The projectile of claim 17 , wherein said projectile terminates in a trailing section having a flat end.
