Bob Blaine said:These are the same bullet. This is done so that it can be shown that they are a good match bullet, and as a tactical bullet where it is needed to show it this way for tactical purposes. This also means that if you cannot find the bullet in the yellow boxes, you can go ahead and use the bullet from the beige boxes and be good to go.

What "tactical purpose" does a "tactical bullet" serve that a plain pedestrian cannot.

It is yet another avenue to sell bullets.. It is called "Niche' Marketing"..

Recon they didn't use bullets before the tactitard craze came along.

It has to do with purchasing requirements and contract specs from some agencies.

amlevin said:If I recall correctly, the "Juggernaut OTM Tactical" is supposed to have a slightly heavier jacket to increase the bullets durability in penetrating certain barriers (windows, etc). Something not encountered in competition where jacket uniformity is paramount.
Unless someone actually "peels" a bullet from each and weighs the jacket material, or Berger comes out with a definitive answer, this topic will be ruled by "conjecture" and "opinions".
