StatsEdit

0	+10%	-2.5%	4
1	+20%	-5%	5
2	+30%	-7.5%	6
3	+40%	-10%	7
4	+50%	-12.5%	8
5	+60%	-15%	9

Target Cracker provides the same critical damage bonus without any penalty (although it does have a instead of a , which works with different builds).
In most cases, this mod will lower average damage. As such, it is not recommended for any gun other than those with a high critical hit rate (such as the Magnus) and only with particular mod setups already in place.
- It is worth noting that modifications to the same stat are additive and as a result Hollow Point's damage penalty is less substantial when placed on a gun already modified with a high-ranking Hornet Strike. In fact, a gun with a maxed rank copy of Hornet Strike will drop from 320% damage per shot to 305% damage per shot, which is slightly less than an effective damage drop of 5%.

In firearm ballistics, hollow-point bullets are bullets made with a bore-hole, or a similar design in their tips, and therefore have less mass and potential energy. However, upon impact they rapidly deform and expand, causing a significantly wider wound channel and depending on the caliber and target, may even come to a stop when compared to other round types like a full metal jacket (solid bullet), which can easily over-penetrate and waste potential kinetic energy.
