How To Make 9mm Jacketed Hollow Point Bullets

Interesting "How-To" video that doesn't actually, you know, do it... But I'm thinking that maybe there's too much copper around the lead core, and it's unscored... and not bonded.

I wonder if he's thinking of carrying that in his EDC? Why else would he be making it himself? Why not practice with reloaded RN?
 
I think that's the first time I have seen someone try that. I give him credit, Its creative, and he admits that it's not perfect but wants to work on improving the process.

At the very east I think he is going to need to melt the lead before putting it into the copper, and score the jacket and lead to get it to open up. Still, it's a neat idea.
