Folks- first of all, if you can't leave the debate about carrying handloads out of this, please don't comment. That horse has been beat to death, and that is a personal decision each of us has to make.
Assuming one were to carry cast bullets for 9mm, 40, or 45, what are some bullet hardnesses, molds, and designs one would look for?
I would like a hollowpoint mold, but can't seem to find one. Then, I'm not sure how the hard WW alloy would perform as a hollowpoint. I assume since there are solid copper HP's out there, it would do ok.
I know that for ultimate surety in this I should do my own testing. That's impossible, I don't have access to the facilities to do it. So I'm going to have to rely on folks that have already done this.
