I'm no gun expert, but doesn't hunting with a hollow point ruin the shit out of the meat?

Well, given that they started discussing "imouto games" here, I think I want to share an interesting, but little-known author of which I once found in the open spaces of ci-en. There is no game yet, but so far I like where development progress is heading.

FMJ is great at going through things entirely, which might not cause a wound severe enough to kill the animal in a humane way (as humane as shooting animals can be lol). Hollow and soft points are better at transferring more energy to the target, thus causing more harm and as a result a faster kill.

But don't they like blow out the meat and produce lead shards or whatever that you have to fish out? I might be entirely mixing up ammo types.

If those old hunting games I used to play in arcades were anything to go by, the locations you're trying to shoot are shit for meat anyway.
But quick googling is saying it's a risk for eating game meat. Your children might have official guidelines saying no but too early for 2023 porn games.
A good hunter is aiming for the lungs-heart-liver area because they don't want to hit the stomach or intestines. 90% of hollow points just turn into a mushroom shape after impact. It dumps more energy, has the potential to stop the heart immediately from sheer shockwave, and if it passes through... it's as if the target was hit by a much larger round.
The ones that fragment are also technically hollow point, but they tend to be called "Self defense" instead of hollow point. They're also hella expensive. Standard 9mm is about 50$ for 100 rds, RIP self defense from G2 is 45$ for 20 rds.
So the answer is basically; whatever you have on hand or whatever is cheapest. Providing you're not shooting at the rear of a deer. Which you should never do. Also, hunters are rarely shy about missing lead fragments. Remember that many hunt with shotgun and something called buckshot. That's 8 or more big balls of lead at the target and since many wont end up inside or remaining inside a target, it's a guessing game if you got them all.

I found it again, the total clone of Imouto Monochrome is "Living in Viellci" by NC131. I'm not saying it's bad, just a blatant copy... it could be a good copy in fact. They seem to be trying to expand on it at least.

We literally discussed this the previous page, the same day they updated it on the forum.

The only reason it even got updated on the forums is because I posted the changelog and download links... everyone else was happy to ignore said update for quite awhile (V0.2 was released back in Feb, the forum page was only updated on the 4th of May, most likely because of me), which is a shame, as copy/rip-off/clone or not, If the maker can at least take it in a interesting direction, well... why not?

Wait, what? I could have sworn the dev has an account on this forum. Seems weird to me for the dev to not drop their own update after months. Either way, I don't want to get too into it because the mods will start deleting shit.

thanks, but for those of us rocking 100 posts per page, this is page 60.

There has been a recent push to switch to copper for hunting purposes to avoid lead poisoning, so there's that

It's a good way to market it and frighten the public to support the push, but frankly, it's scientific bunk. The lead has no poisoning risk to the hunter or those eating what they bring home. It's the fact that it makes the animals sick or deformed, as it accumulates in bones, organs and brains, which most people don't eat. The real reason for the push is to protect the ground water that the wildlife nests and rears in.

That said, most lead poisoning occurs in a chronic sense. It's limited to the amount of sulfide it can react to in the short time it's in the stomach. The mass would stay intact for the most part and pass out the other end. That leads us back to the "chronic sense" statement. Lead littering a wildlife area would have ample time to react with natural sulfides and become a natural exposure issue to all the animals in the hunting area. Hence the real reason for the push. The need for sulfide is also why they can leave bullets inside people without them succumbing to lead poisoning. Sulfides also react with copper and make a pretty nasty poison, so pure copper also isn't used in ammunition, per above posted regulations. Ironically, it is the shots that missed which provide the hazard to the entire population and not the shots that took down an individual.
Lead in bullets is also an alloy of antimony, making it hard enough that chewing on it would be noticable and you'd have the oppertunity to spit it out.
