Ok. I will bite. As HFT and FT pretty much exclusively use Diabo because they have a better ballistics than hollows or flats etc.... what shape do you feel is better than a diablo???
Flat HP and pointed all have pretty shite ballistics in my experience and as per OPs original.post...you dont want penetration per se for hunting. You want to dump energy not help it slip through.
