Well, they have a post in the center of the hollow part of the bullet.
From what I have seen, the post helps to expand the bullet when it hits
a "meaty" part of the target.
By "meaty", I mean a low bone content.  It is revered as a hydro
expansive round.  I have impacted them into gel, and found a most
impresive result.  They are a good round, and do not lose to much of
their original wieght.  One thing I have to say though, they do tend to
misfeed in a firearm that is not "setup" for their use.
My 9mm used to feed them consistentaly, but my rifle could not!  The
load ramp seemed to catch the bullet and jam the thing!
For all of that, in a handgun, they are superior to a lot of rounds for
distance expansion.
