I'm shocked that nobody has brought up reliability. FMJ is more reliable from a functional standpoint.

A rifle that malfs with a basic HP is going to malf with FMJ.

Yep.
I am not sure than tiny hole hollowpoint ammo such as in 5.56 makes a hill of beans difference on feeding when compared to fmj in the AR15 platform. The hollowpoint doesn't really change the profile of the tip, hence no problem. I have shot a whole variety of hollowpoint ammo through many AR15s and never noticed a hollowpoint/fmj difference. I have noticed differences with particular makes or models of ammo, differences with reloads, and differences with some "special" target loads (custom loaded factory rounds), but not on the basis of hollowpoint and fmj.
