The best match grade bullets out there are spire point hollow point boat tail bullets. The accuracy is unmatched. FMJ are cheaper to make, and the military uses FMJ bullets because the Geneva Convention outlawed the use of hollow points. They saw the damage done by hollow point bullets as inhumane. Like getting shot with anything is fucking humane. kek
FMJ bullets will pass through with less damage, and FMJ bullets are a threat to anyone standing behind the target.
Hollow points are best for protection of innocent bystanders. You want the bad guy to absorb the force of impact and not have the bullet exit him at all.
The extra tissue damage from bullet fragments careening and ricocheting around inside the body is a highly desirable intended result. You want the internal bodily tissues of the target to soak up all that energy, to create maximum internal bleeding.
(Remember, Geneva, we're shooting this guy not to give him a nice massage, but to stop him from being able to continue his life-threatening behavior. Often, that means killing.)
FMJ has the better flight than a hollow point or soft point.
No they don't.
