Just for information, Remington makes the Golden Saber hollow point in three bullet weights suitable for the 9mm Luger. They dont make any 30 caliber pistol bullets in this design. There are 102 gr (actually loaded by Remington in the 380 Auto), the 124 gr (my personal favorite GS bullet for the 9mm Luger) and the 147 gr. These have a reduced bullet section (smaller diameter) in the front section so only the rear of the bullet is bearing on the bore and grooves. This pushs the center of gravity of the bullet rearward just like a hollow point and is supposed to help with stabilization (lack of yaw or nose wobble) and accuracy. This is an advanced design bullet and expands well over a large range of velocities and in different mediums. I really like the fact that none of the GS I have shot would plug up when shot through denim (levi pants. Some older designs I tried would plug up and not expand and over penetrate much like a solid bullet. These are decidedly a personal defense bullet.
