#Speer makes some excellent JHP 50 caliber bullets.
Problem is the HP part, over here (UK) they have been outlawed since 1968 Act, soft point (jacket stopped short of point) was still ok??, but by 1997 they were also banned other than for use in tube mags (Winchester and the like) which AFAIK must be marked "Only for the use in Tubular Magazines" the distiction between "expanding ammo" and just "soft(er) point" seems to be above most law inforcers so they teat as the same thing
# I shoot them in my Desert Eagle.
That was where I started with 50AE, I kept the reloading gear (post 1997) and had the Greeener made, along with the above mentioned bullets
So if anyone knows of a dealer or small one-man band who can still make to order in UK, I am interested
