I'm quite sure in Pa you can't use FMJ bullets for hunting...

I was ready to change my ammo because of this post... However I have been doing well this year with the 22 WMR Dynapoints...  Must be something about that chunk of 45  grain lead and my particular Marlin bolt action rifle... Cheap BSA illuminated scope on the rifle yet...That article in guns and ammo did say that they go about 8 inches deep.. So that's probably whey they are working for me...

@ seeking coyotes, A few years ago at the sportsman show I asked that question at the PGC booth, it took them about an hour after some phone calls but they told me that FMJ's are legal for predator hunting.  Not for big game though.
