What's your defense ammo?

I just have 230 gr JHP 45's I loaded in the late 80's, no hi-tech here.

HST. luckygunner test

Look at my link.

I use the Federal in .45 ACP

1 buck in the 12 gauge, which is what I'd actually use.

Federal 357b in the wheelgun. It's the loudest and flashiest thing you can get and I have a better chance of the noise and light stopping them than the bullets.

Can't hit shite with those either

I've been saying for 30 years that if I fire all six out of my .357 (4" barrel) in a dark house, I don't have to hit an intruder. The fire blowing out of the cylinder and barrel, along with the extremely loud booms, will probably cause a fatal heart attack.

Federal HST 9mm 124 grain
Watch shootinthebull410 on YouTube. He does a review of ammo for short barreled 9mm
HST was the winner according to him

That's what a buddy had in his weapon when it "went off" after ejecting said mag, etc. It hit the floor, then the ceiling and then passed through someone's palm if I'm not mistaken. Either way, it wreaked havoc on the boy's hand.

In a variety of guns (45 ACP, 9mm and 380 ACP) I use Speer God Dot or Remington Golden Saber.
