Which +P 45ACP - 165 or 230 grain?

[R&J]

I like the lighter, faster JHP for SD/HD in an urban setting, as overpenetration is a little less likely. Remember, you are responsible for every round you let fly...

For .45 ACP:

Double Tap 165gr. JHP, 1325 fps - 643 ft./lbs.

For 10 mm:

Double Tap 135gr. Nosler JHP, 1600 fps - 767 ft./lbs.

In a rural setting or for hunting, I'd favor the heavier, deeper penetrators--230 gr in .45 ACP and 200 gr hard-cast in 10 mm.
