soft-nosed
Soft-nosed refers to a type of bullet that has a soft point at its tip instead of being fully covered in a hard shell. This design allows for greater expansion upon impact, causing more damage than full-metal jacket bullets. In a broader context, the term can also mean being sensitive or easily upset, often used to describe a person who is emotionally soft.
