How about NO? See my above post - HOLLOWPOINTS DO NOT PENETRATE BODY ARMOR. NOT EVEN CRAPPY SOVIET-ERA BODY ARMOR.

After centuries of firearms development, you mean to tell me that gun-makers cannot settle on a few specifically designed rounds that can, and will, take out an enemy, despite crappy (or decent) body armor?

Or, is our military too cheap to want to spend the $$ on a few extra micrograms of lead in a larger bullet.
