Ballistic tip. These bullets have a small plastic insert in the top of the bullet to close up the hole where the lead went in to the jacket. these bullets can be expanding or non expanding. this one is a Hornady A-max bullet and is non expanding. however Hornady V-max look identical but are expanding. the difference is in the thickness of the jacket. The Grey colour seen on some of the rifle bullets is the molybdenum disulphate coating. this coating reduces friction and barrel wear. Highly recommended.
SPZ FP = Spitzer with a flat point. This bullet also has an exposed lead core and is expanding. the flat point allows it to be used in Under-lever rifles, ths particular bullet is used in a 30/30 under-lever.
