A projectile for firearms and for muzzle loading firearms, in particular, said projectile including a bullet; a gas check member; and a pin or cavity affixed to the bullet and a mating member affixed to the gas check member for frictional attachment of bullet to gas check member. The bullet has a diameter less than the bore of the firearm to minimize scoring or deformation of the bullet during the loading procedure; to facilitate loading; and to improve the ballistics of the bullet; and the gas check member being constructed of resilient plastic material and having a diameter exceeding the diameter of the bore for holding the bullet in place within the bore over the charge. The gas check member attaches by the mating attachment members to the bullet rearward of the maximum diameter of the bullet to prevent any interference between bullet and bore as the bullet obturates during firing. The gas check member frictionally and resiliently engages the bullet for convenience in manual attachment of the gas check member to the bullet prior to loading as well as for ready detachment immediately after firing to prevent bullet drag and to enhance ballistic integrity.
