Hi all. Just ordered a new KelTec P32. I want to carry ball ammo in it as I want to be sure of sufficient penetration. For those of you that have shot both, which is better/hotter for defensive ammo: Fiocchi ball or S&B ball? Also, where is the cheapest place on the web to buy each? Thanks.


Regards,
Frank
 
I cannot attest to the Fiochi, but the S&B is rather warm compared to USA and American Eagle. FYI, my gun feeds the Gold Dot and Hydra w/o a hitch, and they are both pussycats in recoil compared to the S&B. Does anyone know if the Silvertip .32 has the truncated cone profile, or is it rounded like ball? If the latter, this would probably be the best in terms of reliability.
 
Victor,
Silvertip is truncated. I have shot it through my P32 without any problems, it is my carry round.
 
Frank,
The nice thing about my P-32 is that it feeds everything I've tried. EVERYTHING!
I chose the .32 caliber Federal Hydra-Shok as my carry round. The HS seems to be a little harder shooting than the Silvertip. (A little more recoil) The LEO's I've talked to who keep the P-32 as a hide-out weapon all use Hydra-Shoks.
