What are the grooves on a bullet?
Couple of different answers to your question. With a FIRED bullet, grooves that spiral around the bullet are ballistic markings- lines engraved by the rifling in the barrel.

A single groove with no filler is a cannelure- spot for the cartridge case to be crimped into to hold a bullet snugly before firing.
