    I was talking to someone with a milltary back ground he claims standard issue rounds have to be FMJ because of the geneva convention?

    So....If you mod any bullet it's an illegal bullet?

    The landwar convention from The Hague doesn't allow fragmenting bullets for purposes of war, so every army in the world uses FMJ bullets. Usually a hit from a conventional FMJ doesn't kill, but leaves a clean hole. No hunter will use FMJ, since they want to kill, not to wound.

      depends...a fmj .223 is just as likely to kill someone as a hallowpoint, it will enter the neck & come out the asshole because of the spin & tumble

        And p.s.

        doing any type of mod to a factory round is very dangerous...not only to yourself while mod'n....but when they are fired out of the gun

        for instance i think it was in jaws or something, the guy hallowed out a round & poured in poison or something...thats horseshit, it could fragment in the bore & cause the next round to warp the barrel or blow up in your face

              JHP's are not illegal, that is what I carry in my pistols when not at home. at home I use a home defensive bullet that won't go thru walls and kill someone innocent. They are Glasser Slugs.

                FMJ or full metal jackat.. reason there FMJ and not hollow point is due to the reliablity.. nothing is cleaner than a nice "ball point" which is what we always called it... I always keep my 2nd clip with FMJ
