HighVelocity,

Thanks for sharing that little tidbit about the deer. Since it's flesh and blood, that's very valueable when estimating the danger of over penetration.

Paladin,
I consider the Winchester Ranger to be the best kept secret in the CHL community. When I bought my wife a 9mm, I stumbled on the Ranger ammo by accident when a vendor had it for $14/box of 50. Since then I have seen it selling for $20/box of 50 which is still a bargan when you consider all the other brands sell for $12 - $15 for a box of 20. Great ammo. ;-)

Everyone else, I think the article is stating that the FMJ is a good "General Purpose" ammo. Not that it equals the stopping power of HP. If I'm going some place where I think I need a little more penetration, like a park where there are alligators, I'll load up with .45 FMJs. The hyde on them critters is purty tough.... :lol:
