I don't think they are that much more expensive, are they? It might be easier than trying to keep track of two kinds of bullets at once, and ensures you never accidentally shoot training bullets during a non-training situation.If there is no sound in space, how come you can hear the lasers?

At the bulk we're buying, the cost difference between HP and ball is marginal, at best. Yeah, if I go down to Wally World and want to buy a 50 rd box of 9mm; it'll cost me $3 more for HP rather than ball. Not so for Uncle Sugar. As it is, if you're LE(or not...), it makes sense to have your training rounds be as ballistic-ally similar to your duty ammo as possible.
In fact, the biggest argument against HP as training ammo isn't the cost, it's that many indoor shooting ranges don't have the ventilation quite up to snuff and so there's worries about lead particles in the air.Today, you are the waves of the Pacific, pushing ever eastward.

Take a look at the price comparisons of re-manufactured 9mm ammo. HP is more expensive, but not hugely so..at least if you're a government agency.Originally posted by Hauldren Collider View PostToday, you are the waves of the Pacific, pushing ever eastward.

As you describe it, this sounds like a good example of waste when people talk of waste, fraud and abuse inflating the cost of government.I make no bones about my moral support for [terrorist] organizations. - chegitz guevara

Spending money on using hollow points for training purposes is wasteful, yes.I make no bones about my moral support for [terrorist] organizations. - chegitz guevara

I really disagree.
What you train with should be as similar to what you use in the field as possible.Today, you are the waves of the Pacific, pushing ever eastward. You are the sequoias rising from the Sierra Nevada, defiant and enduring.Comment

Hollow points aren't that much more expensive and this assumes the government cares anyway.Originally posted by DinoDoc View Post
As for the whole train how you fight thing, the big thing to consider with hollow points is that they don't feed as well as FMJ or RN in automatics. So it's useful to have practice in that.Comment
