OK, wtf does “green tip” mean?

You can read about it here.

Here’s the specific information.

The NATO standard, NATO symbol, M855 round is intended for use against light matriel targets and personnel, but not vehicles. Identified by a green tip, the 62 grain projectile is constructed of a lead alloy core topped by a steel penetrator, the whole contained within a gilding (copper alloy) metal jacket. The primer and case are waterproof. (See representative cartridge drawing.) Despite the round’s penetration abilities, BATF has specifically exempted it from the AP ban.
