FMJ projectiles, or Full Metal Jacket projectiles, are generally used for training or practice. They can also be referred to as "ball rounds", in certain circles. The metal jacket encapsulates the lead core of the bullet, keeping the lead contained and providing a rigid shell to engage the rifling of modern barrels. An FMJ travels faster than raw lead projectiles and helps to keep your weapon clean by containing lead particles.
