Hornady says that they "penetrate deeper and don't expand like their XTP bullets". However, they do have an exposed lead hollow flat tip point which would make them legal for hunting if they perform at the speeds we're shooting (2200 - 2350fps). Just thought the HAP's might be an alternative to Tim's recommended 230gr Hornady Flat Point FMJ's since those have been discontinued. He seems to think those will put an immediate smack-down on just about anything including a T-Rex. However, I was unable to stock-up on those before they became unavailable, and most game depts. will not allow us to hunt with them.
