TAM, as usual, is correct. Even if an expanded hollow point did over penetrate it would likely not have enough energy to do serious harm to a bystander. FMJs on the other hand would maintain enough energy to seriously injure or kill a bystander.

Here's a pretty quick discussion about it. Shooting The Bull

There are reasons why a hollow point may not expand but there is no reason for a FMJ to expand.

Hollow points.

Re: .45 HP necessary YorN

How about both expansion and proper penetration?

Just make sure they run in your gun.
