I does matter for ammunition that is intended to drop a person with one round. Steel or FMJ tends to go through the intended target, and can result in not stopping a perp from continuing on with their agenda. FMJ can also go through the target and hit bystanders.

Somehow when I have a weapon it’s an “assault weapon” but if a jackbooted cop/thug carries one its a “personal defense weapon”.
What you are saying is that FMJ are more dangerous because they go through targets and hit bystanders, yet those bullets won’t be banned. lol.
Crazy liberals.

Fragmentation rounds can be made to make nastier holes than expanding projectiles. There is always a solution to ignorant liberal fascism.

This can be easily mitigated by intelligent bullet design, but not with current standard calibers.....
