    BECAUSE you have slightly more margin for error if your shot isn't spot on. a fmj will in most cases pencil through a bunny as stuff all resistance to start a tumble
    also SP will REDUCE ricochets by considerable amount Vs fmj .so safety and humanitarian reasons.

    Yep. FMJ are fucking hopeless if the dead shit counts. Even on a little wee rabbit. Hell, even some of the hollow points are pretty useless.
