Why can't I find any "handicapped" ammunition. I am looking for something like a solid copper, shallow cavity hollow point rifle bullet. I shoot a .270 win and can hit most anything inside of 500 yds with it, so I'm not looking to buy a new rifle. The problem is that the 130 grains i like to shoot have a tendency to blow out a good chunk of the far side of an animal. In deer season, I can live with this, but when I want a winter coyote pelt, it becomes a problem. I've come to using the 150 grains because they leave a smaller exit in the hide. Being that in many states it is not legal to hunt with fmj rounds (and I probably wouldn't want to use one for this purpose), why are there no semi-expanding, in between rounds for the flatter shooting big-game rifle calibers? It seems to me that it would not be difficult to manufacture one. Also, I do not currently reload, though it is somewhere on the (distant) horizon.
