    I was thinking about 3d printing some the other day, using a resin printer so failing under high temp shouldn't be an issue

    The MP moulds have a couple of options with the hollowpoints. Would you go for a HP mould or set up a jig to drill an insert hole?

    Hollow point would be easier, send me the dimensions of yours and I'll print you some to try

    That's the MP keith style mould I have. I usually put a good 2thou coat on before sizing so I guess that hole diam would be -4thou from the stated dim? I'll check when I get home with the calipers.
