How did you pick your carry ammo?

Wow, Blackhawk, I'm thinking our Special Ops pepople might want to adopt your ammo selection process! Me, I just carry the Ranger SXT stuff in my duty guns. Usually Gold Dots or Hornady XTPs in my CCW guns. I do chamber check all my carry ammo though! Just lazy I guess!

Carry Ammo

I just found a bullet design I like (Remington Golden Saber 230 gr.) bought a thousand of them and loaded them to duplicate factory ballistics.

Once I got the load I wanted worked up, I cranked up the Dillon and turned out 900 more of the load.

This allows me to afford to practice with the same ammo I carry. When I shoot up all but a couple hunders, I get another 1,000 and load them. I then shoot up all the ammo I have been carrying and replace it with new ammo.

FWIW
