update
I loaded a few more of the Hornady 158 Gr LSWC/HP , used 4.5 grains of W231 this time. Also, I noticed the hollow point is quite small in these. So i took a few and gave the hole a decent whack with a phillips screwdriver. It made the opening just a bit bigger, and cut a little "X" in the end.
Shot both into the wet phone books again. The unmodified ones still didnt open up, but the ones with the modified tips opened up pretty nice.....and retained 150+grains of weight
