Is this a ballistic tip hunting type round or a plinking type round?

thanks

so now that you've changed your question.... the title clearly says "varmint" round.. meaning it's designed for varmint hunting... but you can plink with whatever you want... I like using the FIOCCHI version of the VMAX round... 50 round boxes only cost 20 bucks so I can practice with the same ammo I use to shoot coyote/jackrabbit...

I thought varmint might be marketing gimmick.

Thanks for the reply
