    they are reasonably priced and i can get 1k rounds for little.
    sometimes picking the right ammo is like going shopping for your girl......ugh!

    then there are these:

    185-grain Fang Face Jacketed Hollow Point bullet, 1150 fps

    All of the ammo pictured is specialty ammo. The Glaser is for personal protection and is frangible ammo. Very low collateral penetration possibility, but that's also it's downfall....low penetration. It works great if you're shooting someone without any clothes on.

    The Shotshells pictured are basically snake shot. It is worthless for personal protection, but works great for snakes and rats.

    Never heard of the Wolf nor the Extreme Shock, so don't know.

    I carry Corbon +P or +P+ in all my guns.

    i've been looking at corbon also. they've got good reviews. and i'll narrow the focus between wolf and corbon.....the makers of extreme shock ammo intruced that ammo about 5-6 years ago? it honestly coincided with the 9-11 incident and subsequent invasion of iraq. the specialty rounds i'll leave where they are.


    thanks jaime and all others.


    onward to finish this order......
