The Umarex P2P Core Defense pepper rounds are .68 caliber less-lethal projectiles designed for use in .68 caliber less-lethal launchers. Each round uses a patented hard outer shell with a perfectly centered steel core surrounding a layer of 7% PAVA powder. On impact the core’s inertia ruptures the shell to disperse the irritant powder at the point of contact.
