U.S. Army Team Tests Radical New Dimpled Bullet
Aberdeen Proving Ground - At the U.S. Army's Aberdeen Proving Ground, a team of
ballistics technicians, supported by some of the U.S. Army's top sniper
instructors, has been quietly developing a radical new "dimpled" bullet. The
exterior of the bullet resembles the dimpled surface of a golf ball. The
function of the special dimpled skin is to reduce projectile drag, providing a
flatter long-range trajectory, and greater retained energy at the target.
