    Just a variation on a theme, but after seeing your tests I think I've settled on the punch shape for my setup as well. I was using a 60deg lathe centre, but am now using a simple 28deg cone with a needle tip. 2.5mm cavity diameter at the nose, 5mm cavity depth - so twice the depth I was using before. Gives wider expansion than my older version and looks near identical to the mushroomed bullets you posted above.
