1 ARDEC, PICATINNY ARSENAL 16 & 17 JULY 2012 CONSTRAINED LAYER DAMPENING BARREL TECHNOLOGY

2 Auto Bolt LLC PROPRIETARY Summary Radial Mean Dispersion improved ± 48% σ improved even more Demonstrated to 500 meters No noticeable degradation over 1,700 rounds Tested: 5.56, 30.06, 308, 338 Lapua.... Dreadnought™ rifles consistently show similar R.M.D. {0.61±0.02 M.O.A.}

3 Auto Bolt LLC PROPRIETARY Summary – Kolmogorov-Smirnov 83.8% probability base rifles dissimilar 100.0% probability Dreadnought™ caused accuracy improvement 99.5% probability Dreadnought™ B and C Rifles dispersion identical 100% probability Dreadnought™ affected muzzle velocity

4 Auto Bolt LLC PROPRIETARY Summary – 338 Lapua Wander

5 Auto Bolt LLC PROPRIETARY Summary – Super Dreadnought™ High-loss acoustic waveguide No weight penalty – soldier proof 20% R.M.D. improvement over Dreadnought™ More complicated computer model  Can the physics be simulated?

6 Auto Bolt LLC PROPRIETARY Summary – Acoustic Analysis

7 Auto Bolt LLC PROPRIETARY Elastomeric Material Characterization Sample delivery Shrinkage example {~summer 2010} Environmental sample {July 2010} 3 Alternate materials: drop test  Loctite FAILED  Epoxy.com #964 SUCCESSFUL  EAR Specialty Composites ?

8 Auto Bolt LLC PROPRIETARY Modeling Considerations Dreadnought™ or Super Dreadnought™? Existing prototype or new weapon?  Dreadnought™: 5.56 (1); 308(2+1); 30.06 (1)  Super Dreadnought™: 338 Lapua (1+1) Field test by Auto Bolt or ARDEC or both?  Caliber?  Ammunition loading and by whom?  Range?

9 Auto Bolt LLC PROPRIETARY Classification Question No commercial activity being pursued currently. Can classification issue be resolved? If classified, can CRADA be modified?

10 Auto Bolt LLC PROPRIETARY Patents Dreadnought™ patent status Pursuit of Super Dreadnought™
