switch to either 9mm or 10mmm

@two fingers - this is one of the most funny and most random threads I’ve ever seen on any forum. It has run the gamut.

I have several different kinds of .40 cal ammo.
Liberty Civil Defense - Light, fast, apparently goes through Type II body armor. I imagine a downside would be that it can go through walls and potentially damage things and or kill innocents on the other side. An obvious factor is that it's LOUD!!! Super lightweight. An 11 round Model 96 magazine feels like it only has a few rounds in it. It's the "easiest" to carry due to weight. My M&P Shield feels unloaded and the extra mag sits in my pocket and vanishes due to weight and size.
Buffalo Bore - Hits like a hammer. +P. Can literally kill a deer. (Ask me how I know.) Heavy as crap. The heaviest ammo I own by far. An 11 round model 96 magazine is like a brick.
Speer Gold Dot (if I recall... got them from my LEO uncle when I got the gun) - Supposedly a pretty good HP. Middle of the road weight.
Federal Syntech Defense - Interesting technology. Middle core plows straight through. Three pedals break off and slice a wide (8") wound cavity. Middle of the road weight.
Several FMJ variants.
Honestly, the thing I like about the Liberty is that it's LIGHT! A loaded 11 rd magazine feels like nothing. It drastically reduces the weight of the Model 96 Beretta and a couple of extra mags. My M&P Shield with regular ammo in it and 7 rounds weighs as much as the Beretta with 11 rounds of Liberty. Smaller gun with less ammo weighs the same.Speer Gold Dot has a proven track record. It's my chosen for 9mm and .45 ACP carry.
Liberty Civil Defense? Never shot any, and I personally don't like the hype I read up on about it when it first came out. I look at it as a gimmick ammo, but it does get good reviews from what I've seen. But then, it's heavily marketed in order to GET those good reviews, so there's that.
The others? No opinion.

......10mm AND mayo is awful.

Mayo is gross. Its light lard. Ball ammo cycles everything.The FBI is now doing ballistic testing using mayo.
10mm penetrated 17 gallons of Dukes which was the minimum

(After three weeks and over 200 replies, I can no longer resist ...)What ammmo would you carry in your .40 cal and why?
Look at the number of hits that video has.
I'd love to see the stats on how long into the video it gets watched before the user closes it. The graph probably looks like a cliff.
What about 380 and 9mm MAK?(After three weeks and over 200 replies, I can no longer resist ...)
I would tend to carry .40 cal because it feeds better and shoots more accurately. .357SIG might feed okay, but I would worry about accuracy with the smaller bullet rattling down the barrel. 9mm might work in a pinch as long as your extractor was tight enough to hold on to the case rim, but the cases are often mangled, making extraction problematic, and you also have the small bullet problem. Yeah, I would just stick to .40 cal.

wow I never thought about this. I carry 124 grain 9 mm all the time.Depending on what normal self defense ammo you use, I can see how this could be. If you carried 147 gr JHP normally, that's a 97 gr weight difference. 33 rounds would b 3,201 gr, or just shy of a half pound.
People who don't carry might not think that's a lot...but when you carry routinely, it makes a difference.
wow I never thought about this. I carry 124 grain 9 mm all the time.
so in theory a box of fifty 147 grain 9 mm rounds weighs more than a box of fifty 115 grain 9 mm.
🤯
115gr*50=5750gr
147gr*50=7350gr
Difference is 1600gr.
1600gr* (1lb/7000gr) = 0.229 pounds

Liberty Civil Defense is 60 or 65 grain (Maybe 80? I forget). So the math/weight is a lot different.

Ounces make pounds, and pounds make pain.You joke. But, when those extra ounces are around your belt or in your backpack there's a different over time.
