the Muj in the Soviet/ Afghan war called it the "poison bullet" because of the internal damage it causes because of the design of the projectile
Isn't this more of a bad thing?
It got the name "poison bullet" because it didn't always outright kill its intended target, rather they died later after the battle was over. The bullet penetrated, but that's about all it did. It doesn't fragment, it just passes straight through its target, causing them to die aftewards due to the internal injuries.
