A projectile for shooting from the muzzle of a shotgun formed with a nose cone connected to a launching tube by an interconnecting body. The nose cone has a weighted portion for providing aerodynamic characteristics thereto and a frangible portion. Upon impact against a target, the frangible portion breaks allowing the nose cone walls to deform in a mushroom-like manner, spreading the load over a larger area, thereby diminishing the amount of damage to a target to that of a nose cone which did not spread and mushroom from the breaking of frangible material therein.

A projectile for insertion into a shotgun muzzle extrinsic from its source of propulsion for shooting against a target such as an animal target which is designed to decrease damage to the target comprising: a nose section having an outer wall of a material which is sufficiently deformable to allow deformation upon impact and sufficiently resilient to provide for maintenance of the characteristics of said nose section for aerodynamic flight; a second section attached to said nose section which is attached to and trails behind said nose section upon firing formed as an elongated launching tube suitable for emplacement within a shotgun muzzle so that upon firing thereof it is discharged from the shotgun; and, a friable material within said nose section outer wall formed in part of bonded pelletized materials that breaks upon impact and allows the nose section to expand to provide a greater surface area upon impact to impart the projectile force over a greater surface area.
