Anotations

Scope note:

Muzzleloading rifle bullets with a conical head, cylindrical body, and a three-grooved hollow base which, upon firing, expanded to fill the barrel rifling. They were developed in the mid-19th century by Captain Claude-Étienne Minié, among others, but rapidly grew obsolete with the increasing use of breechloading firearms and practical fixed ammunition in the late 19th century.
