DANGEROUS GAME vs. DANGEROUS HUMANS
For smaller caliber guns, FMJ gives me more comfort when carrying, rather make a small hole and follow up shot then have a HP failure.
Mainly I prefer a 5" 1911 in 45 acp with 230 gr Gold Dot for self defense. Personally I worry a lot about over penetration because I live close to a major city with lots of people and really don't want to have a trial for killing a bystander : (
BUT my first concern is with the safety of my family, grand kids and myself, hence the 45 acp. And to the old thought of a hollow point plugging with clothing, so my 230 Gold Dot HP becomes a FMJ, not really a issue in my case.
Modern ammo has come a long ways in the last 30 years with all the new hollow point technology, but are willing to bet your life on it??????
