After doing some research and reading several articles I found what I think and also firearm experts think is the best Survival/Self Defense Handgun Ammo. Here they are:
.38 Special: 158-grain, all-lead hollowpoint by Federal, Remington and Winchester; Speer 135-grain Gold Dot.
9mm: Winchester 127-grain +P +SXT; Speer 124-grain Gold Dot +P; Federal 124- and 147-grain +P HST.
.40 S&W: Speer 165- and 180-grain Gold Dot; Federal 165- and 180-grain HST; Winchester 165- and 180-grain SXT.
.357 SIG: Speer 125-grain Gold Dot; Federal 125-grain HST.
.45 ACP: Federal 230-grain Hydra-Shok and 230-grain HST; Speer 200- and 230-grain Gold Dot.
(I give all credit for research to American Handgunner, they really know their stuff!)
Any better ideas on handgun loads???
