Abstract (en)

The device disclosed serves to scatter the contents of a shotgun cartridge (5) when discharged at a given target, and is lodged between the wad (4) of the cartridge and its sealed end. The device consists of single strips (2) having a flat, arched, angled or segmented profile when seen in cross section, or alternatively, of slender rods, disposed lengthwise and either glued together of associated via breakable joints such that the force of the cartridge's discharge will bring about their separation, and with it, a widening-out of the spray of shot (3) packed into the case of the cartridge - together with the device - at the moment of its manufacture. Where the device takes the form of a set of strips, these are offset longitudinally so as to occupy the existing space between the wad of the cartridge and its sealed end, and joined together thus.
