I shoot HPs all the time.
However I live in a FREE State and can order full cases of ammunition online.
I also handload, so I pick my projectile there as well. Handloading is the only way that I could afford to shoot as much as I used to. It also allows me to tailor the ammunition to what I was doing.
These are the 185 grain, .451" Barnes solid copper HPs
Do you have a buddy in a neighboring State that you can ship to and then go visit on a weekend for some shooting? Or invite him to your place
