The military have to use FMJ type projectiles because of some convention.

FMJ have been used for hunting this guy used them for buffalo hunting with a .308- https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OneyeUxzL40

I guess it really depends on the species you are going for and the calibre you are using , if the gun is big enough and shot placement good I don't see a problem.

Yes Sungazer good point to and one that should ring loud in all shooters ears Mighty things can be done with
small things with good shot placement
And yes if one happens to walk up on a mob of wild ones accidently while they snooze doesn't take long for the goose
bumps to appear buggars are so unpredictable they could run or up ya then its tree climbing time
