Looking forward to your comments on what is practical from a manufacturing point of view. I think, to summarize comments so far, we want everything:

a. a very heavy bullet (220 to 250 grains)

b. with a hollow point that expands at low velocity

c. that feeds in a semi auto

For me, the reason I like the Whisper concept, is that tumbling factor. Noting that a 1/8 twist barrel in theory causes the 240 grain Sierra MKs to tumble after hitting something, would a rear heavy subsonic bullet at 250 grains do the same thing? And would a long, small diameter hollow point assist in making that projectile unstable at subsonic velocities?
