Hopefully if all goes well, we'll be receiving a CCI/Speer/Federal and Remington shipment early 2010.

Re: SD Ammo that "demonstrate outstanding terminal performance"
Not necessarily. DocGKR tests handgun loads usually at the request of LE Agencies and once in a great while at the request of large numbers of civilians (as when a load is proving extremely popular and no agency has requested it be tested) I'm pretty sure I remember him saying a few months ago that no requests (with accompaning ammo as well) had been received on the 124gr+P HST but I don't know about the GS.

Re: SD Ammo that "demonstrate outstanding terminal performance"
Thanks Ikor, I was gonna say somethin doesn't sound right! Real pity we can't get our hands on the Federal LE line locally. I would hazard a guess that the HST would give the Ranger T a serious run for its money, performance wise. Really like the idea of the deeper cavity on the 147gr HST's (and esp. the +P version).

Re: SD Ammo that "demonstrate outstanding terminal performance"
Hornady 'Critical Defence' 115gr FTX 9mmP. Box says 1140 fps if I remember correctly. Seems a little slow for a 115gr round? Slightly different looking conical shape, with a little rubbery sort of plug in the cavity of the JHP, which (they say) is to ensure reliable expansion after passing through clothing. As usual with this stuff, it's a little hard to tell if it'll be great until you actually shoot somebody. Does anybody have any further info? I'm doing a little googling, but either my google-fu is weak, or there aren't many 'proper' reviews (ie not Joe Soap on youtube giving his 2c) out there. It seems like I will be returning to the quest to find Ranger T's somewhere.
