What John said.
Any ammo that will stop a person won’t stop in a wall. Period.
Plan accordingly.
There’s not any ammo that's combat effective and “house safe.”
And before some chucklehead says “I’m talking about home defense, not combat,” home defense is combat.
Per Webster, anyways:
combat
kəm-băt′, kŏm′băt″
intransitive verb
To oppose in battle; fight against.
To act or work in order to eliminate, curtail, or stop: synonym: oppose.
To engage in fighting; contend or struggle.
Its been very eye opening running these 40 vmax against hogs at home this winter. I'd have expected them to splash on the sides of the bigger hogs for sure. And definitely not be enough to go through heads and spines.
Its been doing well enough that I'd not hesitate to keep them in the house gun. Hopefully never will have to find out.
If they made it through a wall, and I suspect they will, there won't be much left to them after that. I doubt enough to kill someone or something else.
But like most of the folks, we don't limit mags to a single bullet. If I was out in the middle of nowhere I think we could be happy with 75/77 bthps for the most part, certainly with TTSX of some weight.
Keep a mag of TTSX handy. You simply never know.
