You might want to re-think that one a bit. It is very wise to make sure your weapon performs reliably with your chosen self-defense ammo. During a deadly encounter is not the time to find out your gun jams with that ammo.TTU Bass Angler wrote:I guess I should've asked more questions during the course. Thanks for the responses. It totally changed my mind about it. I shoot a 9mm and I did buy a box of Hornady hollow points but I haven't put them into any of my magazines for that reason. I definitely will now. This gives me a different perspective on the whole situation. Thanks for the help!
Personally, I run at least 100 trouble-free rounds of SD ammo before I use it for carry. I understand that some might not be able to test that many rounds, but you need to test to the best of your ability.
Cutting corners is false economy, especially if it costs you your life.
