Bill, I have 68 HP's & may be 40 other brands and calibers and have had touble with many of them shooting hollow points. I can't tell you why. But I have noticed many brands of guns are ammo picky. Not sure why 3 of my 5 995's won't shoot hollow points.

It seems to be blunt tipped ammo. My Hi-Point 380 shows the issue with Winchester White Box as the tip is blunt. I bet if you try hollow point brands with a rounder tip, or the ones with a soft lead or plastic tip, you'll get farther.
