| There are jigs you can buy or make that let a fella file a sharp-edged flatnose on loaded ammo for better effect on game, but cutting off the bore diameter section of the heeled bullet sounds like a waste of ammunition to me. |

| My buddy Mike Jones did that to a few rounds as a joke when he was bored one time and the result was a waste of ammo. He accidentially shot the first one because he thought he loaded a blank. After firing the "modified" round he than fired the rest. The accuracy was nonexistent at 25 feet.

Interesting. Presumably a guy would have to leave in place a driving band of some size. To what end? Velocity, I guess. Fun and experimenting around. Ducking the fog, as they say. Why do we do anything with guns? |

| when I was a kid I would take cheap lead solids and cut an x in them thinking that they would expand better on ground squirrels. I have no idea if it helped. |
