Neither round uses a bonded bullet, the jacket and core will almost certainly seperate in the target, possibly preventing proper penetration, especially if you have to go through something (heavy clothing, wood, car door, auto glass) before the target.
The standard hollowpoint is design circa 1983, the HydraShok was the new kid on the block around '89/'90.
A well designed bonded bullet like a Speer Gold dot it much preferred for self defense.
