In modern day firearm rounds a percussion cap is ignited by a firing pin in order to detonate a propulsive explosion; thus launching a projectile. In this invention the projectile, propellant, and shell are one solid aerodynamic piece instead, leaving no article behind. All of the explosive force is concentrated out of the back end so that all of the energy pushes the bullet forward therefore minimal energy is wasted; technically making this round of ammunition a rocket in itself. This eliminates the need for shell ejection as well; allowing for magazines to be placed closer to the end of the stock of designated rifle assemblies. This also thereby adds potential for more efficient and compact rifle assemblies. As the bullet is permanently bonded to the explosive cartridge, it may also include a small amount of solid rocket fuel furthest away from the open end (so that it is ignited last) to maintain a constant, steadily gaining velocity in order to nearly eliminate the coriolis effect and reduce wind variation.
