It’s my understanding that you can have hollow point ammo in NJ but only in your own home, or if you are traveling to the gun range in your vehicle you may have it in a locked case.
The police are the only ones professional enough to use hollow point ammo in a real life-or-death situation. /s
Interesting. I wonder how they feel about hardened lead, LFN (long flat-nosed), fast traveling bullets over 300 grains? [Real western high country bullets.] ;-)

In effect you can have/use HPs anyplace that it's legal to have/use a firearm in New Jersey which is not very many. In addition to your list, I believe you can also have HPs at your place of business. You could use HPs to hunt if if were legal to hunt with a non-black-powder rifle in New Jersey which it is not, so that's a moot point.
And not ALL police can carry HPs. Retired LEOs can carry firearms in the People's Republic, but they can't carry HPs. Like most of the firearms laws here, it's idiotic. But anyone living in a border area of Pennsylvania should know about that.
I use .40 S&W EFMJ in New Jersey to “skirt” the hollow point issue.
