fixed round

Projects for support under the Fund are invited on a competitive basis during fixed rounds.

Ammunition was issued in the form of fixed rounds, consisting of:

Designed for use with an autoloader, their breeches were inverted and fixed rounds were used.

Indeed, using the fixed rounds, they could load as quickly as the Marine riflemen who'd already shredded the waiting targets.

This required the obturation to be provided by the breech rather than the cartridge case, as is the case in fixed rounds.

Schooling fish make almost fixed rounds from morning to evening, over appreciable distances, while adjusting to the timing of the tidal currents.

It fired a fixed round of shell and cartridge fixed together, which was known as "quick firing" in British terminology.

Instead of once every five minutes, its artillerists fired three times in two minutes--even faster, using the "fixed rounds" at close range.

They were mounted on static platforms and proved fairly successful after a fixed round was developed to replace the original separate round, and more followed.

Not only that, but these were what Sir Ahlfryd Hyndryk, Baron Seamount, called "fixed rounds."

With the addition of premeasured, bagged charges and fixed rounds of grapeshot and canister, their rate of fire would also be enormously increased.

They formed a body of men who lived alongside of the choir monks, but separate from them, not taking part in the canonical office, but having their own fixed round of prayer and religious exercises.

Current tank gun ammunition is a single fixed round ("shell" and charge combined in a single piece) for quick loading, the propellant is in a combustible case, thus negating empty shell casings.

Alice, Bob and the referee receive a common string, and after fixed rounds of interactions (exchanging quantum information between the provers and the referee), the referee decides whether Alice wins or Bob wins.

A fixed round had all the components integrated into a brass cartridge case with the projectile attached, e.g. a rifle cartridge or QF 18-pounder round, in which case Round is synonymous with cartridge.

These 2 guns were non-standard and fired QF fixed rounds (i.e. the cartridge was loaded with shell attached) unlike the standard guns which fired separate ammunition (i.e. shell and cartridge loaded as separate items).
