I can't confirm this since I read about it many years ago in a book
about firearms of the world or ammunition of the world or something
like that.

As I remember, I think the book mentioned that the US Coast Guard
uses, or used to use, an exploding bullet. The bullet was mainly
used for sharks. Any USCG peopl want to verify or deny this?
