Pretty silly if you ask me. I, of course, have a mod for that, but console people need special ammunition too!

I strongly agree with OP.

I'm an electrician. I can probably overcharge stuff without it exploding in my face (probably!).
I have absolutely no idea how to cast a HP bullet correctly.

Different skills.

Hollow point ammo requires specialized equipment beyond what you'd have a reloading bench. You can't just melt down lead into the tip for a hollow point bullet. Maxed Charge ammo is simply an energy cell that has been overcharged beyond the factory recommendations. The real question i why can't you make 9mm P+ as its simply a 9mm round with extra powder inside.

No, but maybe your role play character does ;-)

And this!

But you can't roleplay a character who has access to the necessary equipment to create a hollow point.

You asked why you can't make hollow point ammo so I gave you a reason.

Then your "role play character" has the necesarry repair and science ratings and appropriate perks.

whats the need for Hallow points when you have JSP(Jacketed Soft points) they cause much more carnage then Hallow points. Especially since most everyone in the Wasteland wears "soft Armor" JSP is in reality would be Devastating.. punch threw that first layer they mushroom in the Soft tissue, maybe punching through bone, fraction out and causing major Fragmentation in the soft tissue.

Your right, i should have asked: i want to make Hollow point ammo, because my character know's how? still :sadvaultboy:

Maybe I don't have Handloader perk? And not all ammo types have uber handload variants. 5.56 has none at all.

you could always Cross cut some standard rounds in to Dum Dums, they would be almost as good as hollow points

If you don't have the handloader perk you shouldn't be able to make anything other then basic rounds to begin with.
