Description
A 5.56x45mm full metal jacket cartridge with a lead-core bullet encased in a steel case. The jacket enables a higher muzzle velocity, and the bullet can penetrate basic ballistic armor. However, the cartridge has a lower capacity to expand after impact, which reduces the damage to the target.
