Hollow point and safety slugs are not the same. While a HP round does lessen the risk as compared to a ball, the safety slug was specifically designed for not penetrating walls, or at least, not having much in the way of energy after penetration.

Still a deadly round though.

I'm going to quibble a bit on the Saf-T-Slug advice. I've seen gelatin tests in which the Glazer products performed very, very poorly.

A projectile needs to penetrate and expand in order to reliably wound. While Glazers do indeed 'expand' in a manner of speaking, they're penetration leaves much to be desired.

They do make ugly wounds, but they don't make deep ugly wounds.

IMO one is better off with a reliably expanding hollow point than with the Glazer.

JMO, YMMV.
