LuckyGunner.com just tested a ton of defensive pistol loads

[WestKentucky]

No suprise that my cheapo defense round faired decently well. I like magtech defense ammo, and in every instance in which I have put it on flesh it has done well enough for me to trust it. I have shot it in 9mm, 357 mag and 38spl. All took deer really well, I expect they would perform similarly if I ever needed to defend myself. And yes I'm comfortable with less penetration in exchange for a good expansion. If I wing the guy with a bad shot I still want it to count.

Well...it did well in the sensible loads anyway.

You also have to watch for the bag of milk they carry. Stops bullets cold.

Double tap.

Great to see a test like this. I did note ALL results for this round are on short barreled pistols not service and mid sized guns.

Looking forward to seeing service pistol ie 4 and 5 inch barrels and revolver tests.
