I tried to research this, but found nothing. I have FMJ in 6mm and a small lathe. Has anyone ever tried to make hollow points out of FMJ.

Which Bullet do you have in 6mm that is FMJ? Sierra or speer?I tried to research this, but found nothing. I have FMJ in 6mm and a small lathe. Has anyone ever tried to make hollow points out of FMJ.
That is because there is a partition That separates the led in the front from the lead in the back.I have shot a lot of Nosler partitions, they are not jacketed on the rear.
Yup seen this happen.It has been done with varying degrees of success...BUT IS NOT RECOMMENDED.. There is a danger that an FMJ that has been modified into a soft point or hollow point will have the core shoot out leaving the jacket in the bore. THIS PHENOMENON HAS HAPPENED.
