I don't carry anything smaller than 9x19mm.
EVERYTHING I carry is loaded with hollowpoints, LSWC-HPs in my .38s and .357s and JHPs in my 9x19mms, .40s, and .45s.
I'll defend a good shoot all day, every day. There's NO defending shooting through an assailant and killing a bystander when you could have greatly lessened the likelihood of that happening with proper ammunition. There's no such thing as a "justifiable accidental shooting".
The NYPD didn't agree... until they racked up an impressive record of accidental deaths and woundings due to through and throughs with 9x19mm FMJs. They've got the civil settlements and judgments to prove it too. I can't rule myself "justified" or rob the taxpayers to bankroll MY screwups.
