The first quote you posted was aimed strictly at 9mm loads.
The Hornady Critical Duty round did okay in .45 acp.
I have not put up the glass testing yet, but there were issues with it, as well as some failures to expand during the 4LD testing. The CD loads penetrate deeper than needed, don't crush as much tissue as they could, and are not as sharp on the leading edge as other projectiles.
What is the type of ammo youcarry and why ?
But general statements really don't mean a lot when you are looking at a specific load in a specific caliber.
I did. I was responding. I guess we're just not on the same page.See my first post.
