Soft-nosed bullets are projectiles designed with a soft lead tip, which allows for controlled expansion upon impact. This expansion increases the bullet's diameter, leading to greater tissue damage and energy transfer, making them particularly effective for hunting.

Soft-nosed bullets are often favored in hunting scenarios where quick, humane kills are desired.
