Abstract: A round has a front cartridge (1) with a projectile (6) and a propellant charge (8), a rear cartridge (2) with a propellant charge (8) and a propellant detonating system (3, 10, 14) and a propellant charge detonator (16), which is arranged such that it is located between the first propellant charge and the second propellant charge when the round is loaded. In this case, the propellant detonating system includes detonation transmission means (13) for transmitting the detonation from the rear of the rear cartridge to the propellant charge detonator, and the latter has detonation propagation means, preferably in the form of a detonating cord (26), for the lateral propagation of the detonation, in order to simplify rapid simultaneous detonation of both propellant charges.
