A nonlethal long-range bullet designed to be fired from a conventional high-powered rifle or pistol spreads apart on impact, thereby delivering a nonlethal blow to the target. Prior to impact, the inventive bullet maintains its aerodynamic shape. The bullet includes a front section in a forward portion of the bullet, the front section having a tail that extends to a rear portion of the bullet; a solid section in the rear portion of the bullet, the solid section including most of the mass of the bullet and being substantially disposed around the tail; at least two longitudinal scribe lines that extend along the front section and the tail; and at least another two longitudinal scribe lines that extends along the solid section and are aligned with the at least two longitudinal scribe lines, wherein depths of the at least two and at least another two longitudinal scribe lines are such that the bullet maintains shape integrity during flight while readily deploying into a flattened shape upon impact.
