I've always shot 230 grain FMJ factory loads for practice in my .45's. Usually CCI Lawman, CCI Blazer, Federal American Eagle, and sometimes Winchester White Box. One day a friend told me I should shoot 185 grain loads or softer reloads for less wear and tear on the gun and its softer shooting too. While I don't completely agree I think he has a good point too. My defense loads are 230 grain Golden Sabers in my .45's
How many of you normally practice with something "softer" shooting in your autos compared to your defense loads. I'd just like to know how many of you do or don't.
