As you can see it is a .223 made by Winchester. The issue is the greyish-black metal tip. What is it/what is it for, etc?

Is that just a lead tip?

Looks a whole lot like a Deer Season XP 64gr
Buddy has those in his AR15 truck gun.

It's a metal tip, and quite hard. I couldn't scratch it with a fingernail. But it could be very hard lead. I thought it was a 55 grain but it could be 64 grain. I'll follow up.

Is it a frangible round?
OP
It's not frangible. It is .223. The owner is getting back to me in re bullet weight. If it's 64 grains we will know exactly what it is. My only issue is that those advertised rounds appear to be newer than the round my friend has but we shall see.

I can assure you that they are available in .223. Have shot them in my buddy's rifle.
Do a number on raccoons, deer, possums
