A: That's right! The bullet consists of a copper jacket that prevents fragmentation during feeidng in a semi-automatic, and a core made of compressed non-toxic metal powders. A suitable choice for steel targets and indoor ranges.

A: Taken directly from our own LuckyGunner Lounge - "Frangible ammunition is no different than normal target ammo except the bullet. Instead of a lead core with a copper jacket, frangible bullets are made from compressed copper powder. Whenever the bullet strikes something harder than itself at full speed, it crumbles to pieces. Still dangerous if you’re standing on the wrong side of the muzzle, but once they hit a hard target, the bullet fragments are too small to cause any harm from ricochets. That also means there’s reduced risk of damage to steel targets themselves from frangible ammo."
