When you use slow moving ball ammo like a .45, the wound channel is not as disruptive as with something that would tear better like a swc/wc or hollow point.

along that reasoning why isnt the swc or wc more popular? Im sure theres something Im missing, please post your thoughts.

There you go. Why use WCs when hollow points are available? WCs may be better than ball ammo but I seriously doubt that they produce a wound channel more effectively than a hollow point. Sure, if you can't get hollow points then there MIGHT be an argument for WCs, maybe. I've never seen a direct comparison, so maybe not. Regardless, if hollow points are available then I can't think of a single good reason not to use them.
