[QUOTE="J E Custom, post: 1514505, member: 2736"] For shooting at the range I will shoot any bullet that the pistol likes. If I am shooting single action pistols I consider them for sport. If I am carrying a semi auto for any kind of self protection, It will be a double action and be loaded with with one in the chamber and the hammer de-cocked so All i have to do is draw and pull the trigger. If I feel the need for more horsepower that my 10 mm, I will carry a 44, 454, or the 460 in a double action revolver. I have had 3 encounters with black bears and none with felons and don't want another. So If I get rattled, all I have to do is point and shoot. in some situations you may only have time for one or two shots, so time racking the slide, cocking the hammer or flipping the safety of may cost you that one or two shots. What ever you carry, make sure that you can fire fast, and without thinking about all the other things that could get in your way if you forgot them. If a person wants to carry a semi auto for self defense of the fore legged kind, I recommend a full metal jacketed bullet because it will feed better and will not come apart on impact. If it is the two legged kind almost any bullet will do the job if you can hit with it and it doesn't give you problems feeding. I have faced many charging hogs and found that many bullets will/can bounce or glance off there frontal armor and full metal jacketed bullets rarely fail to penetrate.
