Backyard Small Pistol Ballistics Test

Great information. The 30S is one of my main CC guns. This reinforces that decision.

Its all a personal decision and what works for the individual. I had the opportunity when I bought the 30S to hold and handle every Glock 45 I was interested in. Really went to get a 36, but it didnt fit me just right. I got to hold the 36, 30, 30SF and 30S, as well as 21 and 21SF. When I grabbed the 30S, I just had them box it up. Now this is different for everyone, not saying the 30S is best, just it was in my case, for my hand.

Sorry for the Off thread comments. Interesting to see the Hornady bullet, which is one I carry a lot compared to the HST. I think I will get some of those HST bullets. Have Gold dots also, looks like they live up to their reputation as well. Good info, as others have said.

When my 5 year old daughter saw the expanded HST round on the counter she said, "Daddy, thats a pretty flower." Thats about the best endorsment Federal could get!

The 380 Hydra-Shok, 9mm Gold Dot and 45 HST all performed well.
