  2. Full metal jacket (ammunition) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Full_metal_jacket_(ammunition)

    A full metal jacket ( FMJ) bullet is a small-arms projectile consisting of a soft core (often lead) encased in an outer shell ("jacket") of harder metal, such as gilding metal, cupronickel, or, less commonly, a steel alloy. A bullet jacket usually allows higher muzzle velocities than bare lead without depositing significant amounts of metal in ...

  3. Expanding bullet - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Expanding_bullet

    The British replaced the hollow-point bullets with new full metal jacket bullets and used the remaining stocks of expanding bullets for practice. [ 25 ] During the Hague Convention of 1899 , the majority of the delegates moved to prohibit future usage of expanding bullets, which was opposed by the American and British delegations.

  4. Hollow-point bullet - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hollow-point_bullet

    A 9mm hollow point cartridge, along with unexpanded and expanded bullets. The expanded lead bullet and copper jacket are separated. A hollow-point bullet is a type of expanding bullet which expands on impact with a soft target, transferring more or all of the projectile's energy into the target over a shorter distance.

  5. Improved Outer Tactical Vest - Wikipedia

    The soft kevlar panels have been tested to stop 9 mm 124 grain full metal jacket bullets at 1,400 ft/s (426 m/s) with minimal deformation and has a V-50 of roughly 1,525 ft/s (465 m/s). This means that the bullet has to be traveling faster than 1,525 ft/s (465 m/s) for it to have more than a 50% chance of breaking through the soft armor panel.

  6. Bullet - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bullet

    A ballistic tip bullet is a hollow-point rifle bullet that has a plastic tip on the end of the bullet. This improves external ballistics by streamlining the bullet, allowing it to cut through the air more easily, and improves terminal ballistics by allowing the bullet to act as a jacketed hollow point. As a side effect, it also feeds better in ...

  7. Terminal ballistics - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Terminal_ballistics

    Bullet parts: 1 metal jacket, 2 lead core, 3 steel penetrator. Terminal ballistics is a sub-field of ballistics concerned with the behavior and effects of a projectile when it hits and transfers its energy to a target. Bullet design (as well as the velocity of impact) largely determines the effectiveness of penetration. [ 1]

  8. Soft-point bullet - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Soft-point_bullet

    A soft-point bullet ( SP ), also known as a soft-nosed bullet, is a jacketed expanding bullet with a soft metal core enclosed by a stronger metal jacket left open at the forward tip. A soft-point bullet is intended to expand upon striking flesh to cause a wound diameter greater than the bullet diameter. Jacketed soft point bullets are usually ...
