Hey guys, question;

Do you feel there is a big difference in rounds as far as defense is concerned?

I use Remington jacketed hollowpoints both for range and carry lately as I believe they are the same the police use, not that that should be a deciding factor. I guess it's just easier to keep a box of 50 for both.

The new Critical Defense were suggested as they apparantly are not affected by heavy clothing, like leather, which I have heard affects a normal hp round. Elderboy also has me looking at the Gold Dots and made a valid point about the Critical Defense rounds being relatively new and unproven thus far.

Living in Florida, and the cold weather almost gone, I'm not sure if this is a valid concern.

I've said it before, my personal defense has no price tag.

There is a difference between FMJ and JHP. FMJ's can over penetrate. Head on over to ar15.com and click on the handguns tab. There is a forum for ammunition and the have reviews. Basically, Winchester Ranger, Federal HST, Corbon, and Speer Gold Dots are great.

One of my Vaqueros getting a Black Powder workout.

I wish I had some of my 1866, and my true Winchester 1897, but oh well. The rest of my collection went down in a tragic boating accident.

Nice pictures Junior! Sadly, like many others on here, I lost most of my guns in a tragic boating accident as well :-) :-)

You like to try and eat brains, and just generally invade our personal space.

Absolutely.

My personal preference is Speer Gold Dots. For the longest time Federal Hydra-Shocks were "it" to carry. What a lot of people didn't know was the FH-S had a very small velocity range envelope in which the round performed as designed. The Gold Dot's performance envelope is much greater.

I don't have a lot of recommendations on bandoliers. I bought a cheap one from some gun show vendor. I don't think the quality is that great b/c some of the loops are starting to fray.
