Re: FMJ or JHP for handguns? Why?
I do think there are scenarios where underpenetration is a concern. For example, the .380 is used for many carry guns (LCP, Keltec, Bursa, Walther), and any HP round will not meet the 12" penetration recommended by the FBI. In the case of the .380 I might actually prefer to carry FMJ over JHP to get the penetration required.
