The first pic was the tungsten core from an API round that went through a bunch of steel. . 2. how does tungsten bend? |

I am almost positive it was grey tip api as that was all I shot at that certain spot that day.
I guess I don't know what kind of core Api has (thought it was tungsten) but I know it flashed when it hit. |

Caliber .50 , Ball, M2 uses a mild steel core.
Caliber .50, Armor Piercing, M2 uses a tungsten core. The cores of the two are dimensionally the same, they differ only in material. The projectile in osprey21's post is M2 Ball. Caliber .50, API-T used a hardened tool steel core, I assume the API used a similar core. |
