Were is this taking place? I'd love to show up to more of these events but they're all so far away from me.
So are hollowpoints best for the stake shoot?
I've shot a few of those before and IMHO no they suck. Flat heavy lead puts more meat on the post, fast hollowpoints rip through and take only a little wood. I remember single stack 45's with lead 230's laying waste to hi cap jacketed hollow points on more than one occasion.
