    I think incendiary also. I had a few that came from Israel and I pounded them at hard targets at 100/200m with neat KA-Booming results. Also a flash with a puff...like the spotters we talked about... Wish I'd thought to go buy a small propane tank, fill and shoot from cover at 200. That would have been epic.

    I was just reading an old thread that said they were used for target marking. supposedly it was ink and different colors for different shooters on the same target and it was ink

    Kind of like the recruit instructor I overheard telling a recruit that it was the red tip on the bullet that glowed when a tracer went downrange...
