Frangible

Target Range

Frangible bullets are compressed from copper and tin powder, designed to disintegrate into powder upon hitting hard surfaces. This eliminates ricochet danger and allows safe shooting at steel targets at close range. Ideal for close-quarters training.

FAQ

Can frangible ammo be used for defense?
Not recommended. While it reduces overpenetration, the shallow penetration may not reach vital organs. Use JHP for defensive purposes.
