[QUOTE="DSheetz, post: 2831030, member: 91783"] I have been known to open the hollow points up to a larger size so that they expand more rapidly. I recently made a hollow pointer, for some 6.5, 140-grain full metal jacket bullets. They used to sell them years back when there was a lot of excess military ammo on the market. They make center drills for metal lathes that work well for drilling in the center of them on the tips with the right set up for guiding them. In today's world there are so many good bullets made that it isn't necessary to improvise like it was before, during and just after WW2. Berger says that their 133 grain bullets are designed to expand well with a jacket material that will open up readily. A lot of bullets have slight scoring on the tips to also enhance their expansion. The bullets of today are very precise pieces of the equation more so than ever before in the history of shooting.
