It is what it is.

I'm glad you didn't take offense to what I said, as none was meant. It was really meant to be some constructive advice.

 

Anyway, back to the topic at hand. I have Hornady Critical Defense 9mm loaded in my pistol, and Hornady Critical Defense 00 Buckshot loaded in my 12ga.

I carry Hornady Critical Defense 9mm as my offduty ammo. Great ammo very smooth and not snappy

I loaded some Cor-Bon 45 Auto +P JHP in the .45. It has the highest ft. lbs. of any ammo I've purchased to date at 543, with a knockdown factor of 400 and a Hatcher rating of about 60.

 

I carry Hornady Critical Defense in the 9mm.

 

 

100 grain PowR Ball .357 in the 686.

 

230 grain FMJ .45 ACP in the PX4 Beretta.

Hornady is top notch, can't really do much better. Although Speer and Federal is up there as well.

 

Can't go wrong with any major ammo maker though.
