<<In the armor piercing bullets I have seen, the very tip is part of the hardened steel core. The copper jacket is mechanically bonded to this on the side and on the edge of the back so that it can peel back as the lead expands and create the lever effect to push the steel core at a greater force.>>

My oh my. So you can put these bullets in your 9mm and shoot holes through car engines and tanks?
