✨Environmentally friendly ammunition✨
My dumb ass expecting them to actually be green.
Steel core M855 rounds almost always have painted green tips, actually.

It makes sense at scale the U.S. Military operates at.
Oh.
Oh
I’d be happy if the world just stopped producing ammo completely, but as long as that’s not an option, I prefer the stuff that’s causing less harm as a side-effect in addition to the harm it’s causing anyhow.
Furthermore, not every bullet will kill someone or something. According to this site around 16 billion bullets are produced annually which seems to be a rather low estimate to me. Why spread 16 billion pieces of harmful substances a year across the globe if there’s an alternative?
Reminds me of the debate over carbon sequestration. “We will burn this fuel and through decades of painstaking, expensive engineering, reduce its impact!” To which others reply “or you could just…stop?”
Lead free ammo does make a big difference though. So many condors and other scavenging raptors die of lead poisoning
I was expecting a harmonica microphone.
