I use a Cast LBT OWC in about 260 gr. weight depending on alloy used. I drop them from the mold into a 5 Gal. bucket of cool water. Spread'em out on a towel to dry. 24 hrs. later they are as hard as a rock. I've shot through 1/8" steel with a midrange(about 1150 FPS)load.

I'm with Long Path, 2 holes are better than one,especially a golf ball size one on the way out. Energy figures with handguns are misleading as to effectiveness on game.

With these you don't need cylinder bulging loads either.
