The military is looking for a magic bullet. The 223 55gr ball round fails to penetrate walls, but makes a mess of humans. So, they went to a 62gr steel penetrator which penetrates walls but only ice picks humans with little damage. Perhaps a 75gr hollow point, which penetrates walls and splatters humans, would be a better choice. It is also good to a solid 500 yards.

Not a ground combat vet, so I can only bump this. Your hollow-point idea is a good one in terms of lethality but not so good in terms of the Geneva Convention...
