Be aware that hollow point "cop killer" bullets are legal to sell. However illegal to possess in many states...
With the new administration new Federal laws will be coming

,..that's why the shelves are empty...
as far as penetration goes, law enforcement personnel wearing body armor/bullet-proof jackets should be probably more concerned about fmj rounds then hp's? HP ammo is legal in CA as far as I know; may change down the barack road, who knows. I'll stock up to make sure I won't run out.

Re: magnum ammo suggestions please, thx
For self protection in handgun I have carried 2 clips each with different type round as well as hae alternated in some kind of sequence where I know something is coming up whether I fire off inapropriate round our manually eject to get to rounds.
Be very cautious as to what you use in home if you hae wife or babies slepping in house. Go with heavy grain hollow point so it will not accidently penetrate walls. In a test with a FMJ 9mm it went through 3 rooms of walls before it hit a 2x4 stopping.
Just some things to think about.

.... no I definitely wouldn't want to hit something what I didn't intend to.
That Federal Hydra-Shok JHP ammo which EasyEd mentioned earlier sounds about right and has great reviews; I'll buy some.
oh here is mine, stock photo
ordered 5 boxes of Federal Premium Hydra-Shok from Cabelas. thanks guys!
the only thing I dislike is that lock; you can see the lock hole right above the cylinder release slide..why? why the lock?

Re: magnum ammo suggestions please, thx
Based on old laws done away with not to long ago Ken I was going to have register as an armoury due to the amount of rounds I have stored in my home.
As mentioned I have many weapons to deal with threats from many different distances plus larger amounts of ammo per caliber/type depending on how close the threat is or could get.

Re: magnum ammo suggestions please, thx
Sorry to change the subject but it's related to the ammo topic. What would you guy's consider to be the best semi-automatic handgun for home protection. My wife likes her little .38 but I want a little something more for the house.

it won't hurt anything to stock up a bit..
we don't have weapons around but I'm working on it to improve. Actually I looked seriously into buying a Glock 21, dealer has a brand new one there but I wanted something more managable for the starter. 100% reliabilty was the reason I grabbed S&W over the Glock

He has two 9mm semi's, Colt and S&W. I like the S&W more, had better hit ratio with as well... We fired some 3-4 magazines each thru those two last weekend..
