Go Duck!
If one shoots some game with various loads you wont think FMJ and a functional hollow point do the same thing.
There is some modern testing done for reference for LE work, not just youtube level work. The hydra-shok isn't thought to be in the same class as the new generation of loads. Some GS loads are in the "OK" list of Dr Roberts, and some aren't. I think the 124 gr bonded worked pretty well, as did the 147 gr. GS has been improved over time as I understand it. Not so much the hydra-shok.
If those are the only ones available, see if theres any accuracy or functional difference. My bet would be on the GS, but that's just a guess, based on what Ive heard of hydra-shoks, even 25 or so years ago in a forensic publication. Either will be better than fmj. if other ammo is possible to be under consideration, look up the current test info (the real stuff, not youtube personalities) and see what you can lay hands on.
