Hollow Point making Tool

Many years ago, I ordered a Hollow Point making tool. It was for either 22LR or 22WMR ammo and it was very simple to use.
The tool would either clean up and/or true up an existing hollow point bullet. I used it on all of my 22LR rimfire ammo and it always increased the accuracy. I can't remember the name of the tool, nor where I ordered it. :rolleyes: It was a hand held tool and quite simple to use.

Does anyone know of a similar type of tool for making hollow point bullets with 22LR ammo?
 
Back in the day, I used a D Rock Hollow Point die and did a big write up on rimfire central (see link). There was also the Neil Waltz die and Paco Kelly die. I thought the D Rock was a superior design due to the adjustable lock ring used to set absolute depths for repeatability. The other designs were based on feel, how hard you hit the die with a hammer.

I made HPs out of anything, including match grade subsonic bullets (Wolf MT) for hunting that expanded on squirrels.
