Why ball type bullet is intended for antipersonnel?

Ball type bullets are designed for antipersonnel use primarily due to their aerodynamic shape and ability to penetrate targets effectively. They typically have a full metal jacket, which reduces deformation upon impact, allowing for greater penetration and stopping power. This design also minimizes the risk of over-penetration, which can be problematic in urban environments. Additionally, ball ammunition is often more cost-effective to produce, making it widely available for military and law enforcement applications.
