I've got a few questions about ammo in firearms that you carry or have a home for Self Defense & protection.
My first question, assuming that you have multiple firearms, is do you use different ammo in 3 to 4 inch barreled firearms vs. 5" or longer barreled firearms? If so, what difference in terms of bullet, bullet weight, velocity, and any other differences?
In shorter barreled handguns 4" & under, what's your "personal opinion" about a lighter bullet & higher velocity vs. heavier bullet & less velocity?
And last my friends, I have lots of Win. Silvertip ammo, 115 grain JHP 9mm and 185 grain JHP 45acp ammo. Also I have several cases of 185 grain LE JHP 45acp Remington Golden Saber ammo (not bonded). Do any of you have experience with any of this ammo in 4" or shorter barreled firearms. If not I'd like to hear your opinions and thoughts about this anyhow.
Thank you guys. I'm sure there have been a lot of discussion on this topic but I'm mainly concerned about the ammo that I already have. Thanks brothers.
