*The real world variant would be modified JHP, or '''j'''acketed '''h'''ollow '''p'''oint ammunition. This is a variety of hollow point bullet. The bullet consists of several segments of a hard metal that is welded together with a soft metal such as lead. The welds acts as weak points, so that on impact, the bullet should seperate along the welds into component segments. This spreads the damage over a larger area, but it also decreases the penetrating power. These rounds are surrounded with a fluted or perforated metal jacket in order to provide optimal fragmentary habits, as opposed to a haphazard disintegration which would do less damage.
