The Armor-piercing rounds have great bullet penetration compared to the other types of bullets. And these deal even more damage when firing upon enemies under cover. The NATO Round Nose Rounds also have the bullet penetration effect, but they are not nearly as effective as the Armor-Piercing ones.

You can equip these Armor-piercing rounds in your custom loadouts. To get proper penetration kills, it is recommended you use sniper rifles or marksman rifles. Since these are generally one-shot, you'll have to create a loadout that can one-shot enemies properly.
