A fully frangible projectile for a small bore weapon, including a core formed from a mixture of powders into a core blank of high uniform density. The core blank is die-formed to an undersize core and thereafter provided with a plate on the outer surfaces thereof. The plated core is restruck to adjust its frangibility and intimately associate the plate with powder particles exposed on the external outer surfaces of the core such that disintegration of the core effects like disintegration of the plate. A method for the manufacture of the projectile is disclosed.
