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.

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?

Dave Hydro's are the way to go. Keep in mind taking mass down is best achieved by large grain slow muzzle speed. The better knock down comes from subsonic bullet travel speed.

Hydro's are so deadly because inside the hollow point is a tougher metal sabot that as bullet strikes the hp does intended work softing target area but, sabot is forced into target deeper by it's intended design and the mass behing it that has not begun exspansion yet.

Hydro's are nasty baby's.
