Yes this topic come up from time to time and the general agreement is that there is little difference between the HP and AP rounds and modding is not worth the effort.

Furthermore I belive it to be historically accurate.

Now dont get me started on the rate of fire and damage model

I understand these issues are being looked into in the next release of GW.
