TWR,
That is straight from the article from J Guthrie, the remark about the Hague Convention. Actually, the open tip removed weight making the rear heavier. He says, " the hollow cavity is not there to induce expansion; it's there to put the majority of weight towards the projectile's rear so that it is more stable in flight and increase accuracy."
"....it is not designed to expand and cause undue suffering." He notes that as "that critical phrase in the Hague Convention regarding ammunition."
He is not saying Sierra designed that years in advance knowing this would be an issue. He does note this though, perhaps as an afterthought that it could be a positive in light of any possible criticism.
