Hi everyone I'm new to this forum but not to firearms. Just kind of curious what everyone likes as far as self defense ammo. There are so many kinds out there I think most people just say Gold Dot because thats what they see police using. I've done as much research as I possibly can and it seems like there are a lot of really good choices. Not talking about the ability to penetrate barriers. I doubt I will ever have to shoot through a windshield or car door. I'm talking about what performs best on bare gelatin and heavy clothing. 10" to 12" penetration is perfect for me any more or less and they start to lose points in my eyes. I probably should mention theres always one guy who has to pop up in every ammo thread and remind us all that "shot placement is most important" or "whatever your gun shoots best" or "whatever you're most comfortable with". Yeah we got it. Please don't give us that answer as if this talk of bullet technology is so far beneath you and your superior shooting wisdom.
Thanks
Thanks
