Projectile (5)

Ross

There are a few possibilities for this:

Which length description are you looking for?:

5

6 7

'projectile' is the definition.
(I have seen 'Explosive projectile' mean 'shell' so perhaps 'projectile' could also mean 'shell')

This is all the clue.

(Other definitions for shell that I've seen before include "Outside of an egg" , "Something used instead of money" , "Hard casing; a racing boat" , "Mollusc's casing" , "Characteristic feature of crustacean" .)

I've seen this clue in The Mirror and the Evening Standard.
