I have always been a bit skeptical of the copper hollow points, but still use them. I would like to see them come out with a lead jacketed hollow point (like you might see in a .44 cal bullet) or simply a lead nosed bullet (like a rifle cartridge). just seems like they would work well (better?)
Those type of bullets are out there - You will need to look in the rifle bullet sections for .458 (45/70) rifle bullets - Speer makes a really good one - actually 3 as does Sierra and Hornady. Nosler makes a partition both in .451 and .458 that is a protected point (flat nose). I shoot both of these during elk season they are very accurate from my ML's and they do carry a big bump at the target.

When I get home tonight I will post a picture of these different offerings.
