A bullet assembly includes a nose member having an outer cylindrical wall terminating at its forward end with a generally hemispherical nose. The nose member also includes an inner wall defining a concentric cavity inside the nose member having a predetermined axial depth. The bullet assembly also includes a base member having a cylindrical body portion and a projection that extends away from an upper surface of the body portion. The projection engages the inner wall of the nose member to secure the nose member to the base member. The projection has an axial length smaller than the predetermined depth of the cavity to form a hollow region completely disposed and enclosed inside the nose member.

A bullet assembly comprising a two piece projectile consisting of: a hollow cylindrical nose member having an outer and inner surface defining a hollow generally cylindrical body portion and a hemispherical end nose portion wherein a cross-section of the hollow cylindrical nose member defines a substantially U-shape with the hemispherical nose portion forming a bight of the U-shape cross-section; a solid base member having a cylindrical body portion with an outer surface of equal diameter to a diameter of the outer surface of the cylindrical nose member and a tapered solid projection portion which is located within a cavity defined by the hollow in the generally cylindrical body portion of the nose member; wherein the nose and base members are made from the same material; wherein the solid projection portion of the base member is axially separated from the inner surface of the hemispherical end of the nose member to define a hollow region between the solid projection and the inner surface of the hemispherical end of the nose member; wherein the inner surface of the cylindrical body portion of the nose member has a substantial identical taper with the taper of the solid projection so as to provide a tight fit therebetween; wherein the solid projection is axially centered on the solid base member with its taper being axially inwardly displaced from the outer diameters of the outer surfaces of the nose and base members; wherein an open end of the nose member abuts a flat annular ledge on the base member that extends between the taper of the projection and the outer surface of the base member to provide a close fit therebetween; and wherein a thickness between the inner and outer surfaces of the hemispherical end nose portion of the nose member at the hollow region is substantially constant.
