The idea with the frangible one is to hit and shatter near the surface. Shreds rabbits, foxes etc. Hit a big heavy boned animal with one and depending on where it hits you cause a really nasty fleshwound and probably don't get to the vitals. So I use frangible bullets in my 223, and expanding ones in my 308.
This is a good article on the effective difference

So what projectiles are you using in the 223 and does the manufacturer label them as frangible?

Anyway, having done more reading on it I now realize I've got the wrong end of the stick here and Rod, Gaz etc are correct- there are bullets that are designed to be frangible (which is what I was describing), and there is a specific form of ammo called frangible ammunition designed to minimize ricochets and pass through, and its not the same thing.
