Hollow points
Okay gurus. Where is the best place to buy 9mm 124g hollow points for practice and carry. I'm not talking top of the line +p ammo for home defense. I'm talking bout bulk hollow points to practice with plus carry on the farm for varmints on the evening walk. Thanks again.

I guess I'm missing something. Why practice with HPs instead of less expensive FMJ?

You just saved me some money. I was about to place an order for 1000 rounds of .40 and these prices are a fair bit better than where I normally buy.
Thanks!

By practicing with what you carry you know how you & your weapon will react.... felt recoil, feeding, cycling, that sort ofC-dub wrote:I guess I'm missing something. Why practice with HPs instead of less expensive FMJ?

I do not know, nor do I think anyone else knows either, when something will happen that will put my or a loved ones life at risk.
I, personally, want to know how my weapon will respond to the ammunition that is in the weapon at the time I'm carrying it. I
will not take that kind of chance w my own life nor that of someone I love. Maybe you don't feel the same way, that would be
another of those personal choices that we all make throughout life.

Re: Hollow points
I generally burn up the carry ammo in the gun when I get to the range, then switch to FMJ. It lets me 1) rotate my carry ammo and 2) keeps me familiar with how my carry ammo acts in my gun...
