I think you're asking about hollow point bullets. ? they have a hollow tip (duh) that when they hit something the tip explodes through the target, and the shrapnel causing massive amounts of damage while the bullet does not penetrating as deep.
good luck

Nope. The term is FRANGIBLE bullet. They are constructed of material that causes them to break apart when striking a hard surface- but they are not hollowpoints. Materials have included powdered iron, pressed into a mold, or bakelite type plastics. Not too common, they were created for special uses, such as training aerial gunners. When they hit a hard surface, they break into dust- so no flying off at angles.

Can a bullet go through a brick?
A bullet can shatter a brick, but the bullet will be flattened or broken into fragments by the time it comes out the other side of the brick. So that means it will be less dangerous than it was before it impacted the brick. It will be slower and less aerodynamic, less streamlined. It will quickly lose even more speed as it goes through the air. Brick walls offer pretty good protection against a few handgun bullets, but multiple hits from powerful rifle bullets can shatter the bricks and leave a hole for other bullets to fly through.
Does the bullets in Normandie could really penetrate in the water like in ''Saving Private Ryan'' movie?
bullets do not go far after being fired into water.............and are unlikely to penetrate a body after couple of feet into water....Most bullets will shatter after going a few inches into the water, however, if they are already slowed down enough, they could go through the water and kill someone.
