Fill your hollow points with mercury, hotwax the tip opening to retain the mercury. Most lethal combo I know of.

They explode big time on impact. A little secret I learned from "Day of the Jackal".

Why do they explode ? Can you explain the science mechanism behind this ?

A semi-jacketed hollowpoint bullet so loaded will retain its initial mass and momentum. But, the mercury being liquid will escape the confines of the bullet during the mushrooming stage and expand so quickly as to in effect, expload, creating a hydrostatic shock zone of destruction far greater than the bullet alone.
