  1. Go to .380 ammo

    In all of the tests that I've seen w/ denim it performed well.
  2. Go to .380 ammo

    Surprisingly the XTP has the same penetration as 9mm Speer Gold Dots & Federal HST's... two of my favorite 9mm loads. About 12 1/2" to 14" consistently. Much better than the .380 Crit. Defen. which is a bit shallow in the same testing media.
  3. Go to .380 ammo

    Yes.... that is precisely why the .380 is not a "preferred" defensive round.
  4. Go to .380 ammo

    Interesting how some loads are more susceptible to the than others. That's something to watch carefully in all calibers. Back when I was doing classes almost daily a few years ago is what made me get a dedicated class "teaching" gun to take at least some wear & tear off both my carry gun &...
  5. Go to .380 ammo

    Actually even in their tests the XTP penetrated more than the Gold Dot (my 2nd choice) or Crit. Defen. which as I mentioned is my 1st priority on such a small, weak round. On youtube both "tnoutdoors09" & "shootingthebull410" found reasonable, consistent (for a .380) expansion & exceptional...
  6. Go to .380 ammo

    I like & use that or its DoubleTap counterpart for "woods" rounds.
  7. Go to .380 ammo

    It consistently stays within 12" to 14" which is considered an optimum all around depth.
  8. Go to .380 ammo

    I was specifically referring to the .380 per the thread title.
  9. Go to .380 ammo

    I had a lengthy conversation with a member on here about that very topic. He asked what I recommend to students. After considerable research the round I feel has the best terminal performance is the Hornady XTP in about any commercial loading that it comes in.... American Gunner, Fiochi...
  10. KSU campus carry debate

    Yeah.... my son goes down there & 2 wks. ago on a Satur. night I'm pretty confident it was 2 of those liberals who jumped him on campus when he was headed back to his dorm. Fortunately he is very capable at taking care of himself so it worked out ok. He's out of town or he would attend. Good...
  11. CCW holder stops attacker armed with an ax

    This is the kind of story line liberals hate to hear but really helps support responsible concealed carry. http://www.foxnews.com/us/2016/03/14/customer-with-concealed-carry-permit-fatally-shoots-axe-wielding-attacker-at-7-eleven.html
  12. Night sights for a Glock 32 ????
