_IF_ it's a tungsten round then keep it, as it will be quite the collectors item someday.

Reason being, they did alot of testing on using tungsten and DU rounds in smallbore weapons, but found out that below 30mm, there was no real advantage to them.

Yes they were harder than normal AP bullets, but the weight difference was so small as to be negligable, especially when compared to the cost of production.

so _IF_ thats actually a tungsten slap round, keep it put up someplace, there's damn few of them left in existence.
