The purpose is two fold. First with a cup and core bullet the open meplat is unavoidable. The second is that by leaving a bit of empty jacket at the front, the CG of the bullet is shifted aft making it more stable in flight.
What is the purpose of hollow point target bullets, what is they objective or what are they trying to achieve?
Thanks Dean
RUMs are like woman in Stiletto heals, you know they are going to put you in the poor house, but that has never stopped anyone from pursuing them.

And if you have an exposed lead point, it is prone to getting damaged making the bullets less uniform.
