I used to use Hydra Shok for HD/SD but have switched over to Golden Saber / Ranger SXT.
I load similar weight bullets (jacketed/plated) to duplicate the recoil/shot placement of the factory JHP round and practice with them. Although I prefer to load my magazines with factory ammunition for SD/HD, bulk factory JHP like Golden Saber bullets are available if you choose to reload your own SD/HD rounds. http://www.midwayusa.com/viewProduct/?productNumber=1601267681
Having said that, I would certainly feel quite confident with my 45 pistol loaded with 230 gr RN whether jacketed/plated or even lead.
