In general, a pistol bullet type of a certain weight and velocity will feel about the same as any other bullet of the same weight and velocity.
A 185 gr. JHP at 1000 fps will feel the same to the shooter as a 185 gr. FMJ or SWC at that velocity.
The BT on the BTHP affects drag and BC, IIRC. The HP on that round is not there for terminal effect, it is a HP to keep the weight of the bullet and the center of gravity further aft, toward the base, resulting in a more stable projo.
Shot placement isn't catastrophic, it should be precise.

The credit belongs to the man who is actually in the arena, whose face is marred by dust and sweat and blood; who strives valiantly; who errs, who comes short again and again, because there is no effort without error and shortcoming; but who does actually strive to do the deeds; who knows great enthusiasms, the great devotions; who spends himself in a worthy cause; who at the best knows in the end the triumph of high achievement, and who at the worst, if he fails, at least fails while daring greatly, so that his place shall never be with those cold and timid souls who neither know victory nor defeat." - President Theodore Roosevelt, 1910
