Of course it is possible. Try a solid projectile of Californium 252 in
a large
caliber rifle or heavy machingune. It will reach critical mass if it
impacts a
solid object such as a tank, concrete wall, etc. The down side is the
half-life
of 6 months. If you don't use them within 6 months of manufacture,
their
useless as a micro-nuke, but they'll still punch nice and extemely
expensive
holes through soft objects...
