- In DC hollow points are as legal as any other normal/non-restricted bullet. So possessing a hollow point *isn't* a crime only if you comply with every single requirement listed in DC Code § 7-2506.01.

- The totally banned rounds are listed in § 7-2501.01(13A) (A) ("restricted pistol bullet"). One of the bullets on this list is a full-jacketed pistol bullet, over .22 caliber, if the jacket "has a weight of more than 25% of the total weight of the projectile".

- And even if you figure out how to legally possess bullets in DC, if they're larger than .22 caliber rimfire, you can't possess a magazine that "can accept" 11 or more of them. See the "large capacity ammunition feeding device" crime in § 7-2506.01(b).
