Semi-armor piercing is a military-esque term for a round that has some
means of defeating armor (ie, shaped charge, hard round/jacket material)
but is really only effective against lighter grades of armor (ie, it
won't scratch an MBT). 5.56mm NATO Ball ammunition is also listed as
"semi-armor piercing" or "light armor piercing".
