A: Hello Nick! This round's jacketed soft point (JSP) projectile should work well for personal protection. Because its soft lead core is exposed at its tip, it will deform and tumble when it penetrates soft tissue, making its terminal effect suitable for self-defense and hunting. The JSP is a simple and cost-effective design, so many shooters also use it during range training. If you're looking for top shelf self-defense ammo, we currently have this in stock as well: luckygunner.com/45-long-colt-185-gr-jhp-critical-defense-hornady-20-rounds. Hornady's FTX is a jacketed hollow point bullet, with polymer in its nose cavity to protect it from clogging with fabric when it penetrates its target. This ammo is marketed only for self-defense.
