Making HP from FMJ

[oneshot]

If you are thinking about trying to make HP out of FMG Most all FMJ are open on the bottom if you open the top it has been known to blow the core through the Jacket and leave it in the barrel this could cost you a lot for trying to save a dollar
SP and HP are closed on the bottom Just my 100 cents

Just cut an x in the top.

Yep. I can see that. I just load ‘‘em backwards in my Brit 303

I'm not very creative...If I want HPs, I buy HPs

Gonna be honest didn't know folks still did stuff like that. I mean outside of cast bullets at least and that's not necessarily germain to fmj.

We used to load .38 hollow base wad cutters backwards just for fun. Not as accurate of course because the hollow base isn’t expanding like designed to engage the rifling, but it sure was fun to watch watermelons and water filled milk jugs explode.

I'm shocked no body has marketed them for SD. Would work.
