What was the reason that the Germanicon military switched over to the round nose bullet during the 1916 time period ? the truncated bullet having been standard up to that time, did it have anything to do with the C96 pistol in 9mm ?

truncated bullet in cartridge is a Winchester from the post WW1 period

the round nose bullet is German 1918Attachment 44474
