Home Forums Reloading Big Game Rifles Lehigh Xtreme defender or penetrator

I have a buddy that is a police officer and they supply all their duty guns with the Lehigh extreme defense bullets in ammo loaded by black hills ammo. He had to shoot a deer caught in a fence with his Glock 19 and the damage was impressive for a 9mm. I think a 45-70 would be way more impressive. I would go with the defense instead of the penetrator unless you are looking to shoot grizzly bears or cape buffalo. the defense bullet is better at causing damage in soft tissue whereas the penetrator is meant to do just that.
