The most typical for the 50 BMG are:
1. Plain (no paint) = M33 ball
2. Black tip = Armor piercing
3. Silver tip = Armor piercing incinerator
4. Silver and red tip = Armor piercing incinerator tracer
5. Red tip = Tracer
6. Blue tip = Incinerator
7. Green and White tip = Raufoss
This is for US manfactured ammo.

It's not incinerator it's incendiary. Magnesium powder inside causing a flash and white puff of smoke on contact.
