I have been pondering on this for a while and something I read in a gun mag the other day( I know dont believe everything you read) made me wonder why not 230 gr fmj for self defense? I know most people will say over penetration is the key issue but as was stated in the article I read "most case studies of over penetration was attributed to 9mm and 38spl". I mean I'm not a reloader and never have professed to be one but it seems to me that this article made sense seeing as how 9mm and 38spl are small bullets moving at a fairly high speed.
On the other hand you have 45 acp a large bullet moving at a relatively slow speed. And everyone who is a fan of the 45acp knows about its stopping power with 230 ball. So I would really like to hear from some of you on the subject.
