DESCRIPTION
THE U.S.
DOD BREACHING ROUND is designed to defeat door locks and hinges.
Specifically designed for personnel who have the responsibility to
perform shotgun breaching, it is fired four (4) to eight (8) inches from
the target. At impact, the metal powder filled projectile cup
disintegrates, dissipating its entire energy on the target, providing
access through doors by the removal of door locks or hinges through
kinetic energy impact.

MANUFACTURING
The
Breaching Rounds were made by a company called ACTIV which went
out of business. ACTIV rounds are made out of a Biaxial plastic
which allows "off the press loading" without resizing. For
this reason, ACTIV hulls are preferred for built-up specialty hand
loads. The steel ring, molded right into the hull's
base, gives the ACTIV greater structural integrity. The plastic conforms
well with roll crimped loads and ACTIV hulls can be rolled over and over
again without deteriorating. In the field, ACTIV hulls cycle through
almost any automatic -- making these hulls an easy fix for a frustrating
gun problem.
IMPORTANT
NOTICE - This is NOT Less-Lethal Ammunition
The
U.S. DoD Door Breaching Round is lethal and extremely destructive. DO
NOT fire directly at person(s); serious injury or death may result.
Intended for use ONLY by qualified personnel properly trained in the
specific use of door breaching techniques. This ammunition can cause
contusions, abrasions, broken ribs, concussions, loss of eyes,
superficial organ damage, serious skin lacerations, massive skull
fractures, rupture of heart or kidney, fragmentation of the liver,
hemorrhages, and death.
