Do my fellow governor fans mind sharing what defense loads you go with?
Lots of informal testing and then watching ballistic tests other people do led me to the federal 410 buck if you can find it.
I would not want to stand in front of the Hornady critical defense or Winchester pdx rounds though. I've read of a few actual self defense shootings that used the latter. Over in one shot, bad guy down for the count but survived. Works for me.
I used to keep three buckshot and 3 45 colt jhp, best of both worlds. Right now just back from the range I have it all full of the handgun buck with the last shot a Winchester hp. My Governor loves cowboy loads, so I was considering loading a few flat point lead 45 colts.
For reload I keep 45 acp in moon clips, right now it's the poly Ruger arx rounds. Haven't seen or heard much about them.
