Here's my contribution, these are RWS Target Rifle with a 60deg conical hollowpoint (made with a dead centre for a lathe). Shot into dense wet newspaper at pointblank. As marked, they are 2.5mm hollowpoint depth, 3.0mm hollowpoint depth, unmodified solid, and a couple of factory RWS Subsonic HP rounds for comparison. All the hollowpoints penetrated about 6", the solid went about 10":
