I think the Hornady round might be the right shape to follow the route into battery, but I'd wonder about the bullet's weight/charge relationship. It's usually recommended that +P, +P+, NATO, and other "hot" loads be avoided to reduce the risk of damaging the action/breaking something. Is this hollow point a high velocity round? I'd postpone the experiment till we hear more. Someone , I hope, with a more definitive answer should chime in here, so be patient...
