Ditto on the Hydrashocks. As to the comparison being unfair, it would have even been worse with the 155 gr (1,140 fps) .40 S&W Hydrashock. That's the one I carry. The 165 gr. HS puts out only 352 ft-lb energy as opposed to 447 ft-lb for the 155 gr. round - 27% more for the latter. I've shot both of them at water jugs, and the 155 gr. cartridge is definitely more violent.
