I've only tagged one with the 300W using 220 SMKs, it passed through the chest cavity like the 240's.
I'd like to try the Outlaw bullets, but I haven't brought myself to pay that much for pills. They're as expensive as my 50cal pills and I haven't gotten over the sticker shock yet.
How did you guys modify the SMK's above? Drill, sander, file? Was it a pain in the ass to get the weights consistent?

It is easy. A few minutes. Dremmel with the little carbide cutting wheel. Cut the tip off. (like butter) Then use a small drill bit, then a little bigger drill bit if you want it a little bigger HP. Hand file and polish. The only setback is they don't feed consistent enough in my AR. So I hand feed it and the clip is stacked with stock OTM's. The first shot is all you need. If not. Stick him with a pointy one, on a follow up.
