I've got a couple box's of Hornady ZOMBIE MAX, 185gr Z-Max. I keep a clip loaded with those... just in case. smirk

Nor a car, either.

They don't factor much into my self-defense planning.

Tjm cars can pop up at very inopportune times but I have not seen a p-coat in Montana yet. smile

I guess I pick defensive ammo the same way I pick out hunting ammo. I dont want ammo that will be spectacular under one scenario and will not perform acceptably in other scenarios.

As someone else mentioned, about any current generation HP in a .45 will work but if pushed to picked one I would go with the 185 barnes as loaded by corbon or the Federal 230 HST.


Hunt hard, kill clean, waste nothing and offer no apologies.
