Remington has some HP's with the profile of FMJ's,that feed very well indeed.
I am not getting into the finer points of caliber, vs speed vs fatso.
My take on this is that if you fear the overpenetration of FMJ pistol rounds, you need to forget using shotgun slugs, or high powered rifles for self defense. Both have a tendency to penetrate deeper, and shoot further, than handguns. Seems illogical and inconsistent to limit ammo for handguns when using even more powerful rounds for the long guns.

Boy that sure makes sense. I have heard many on here who are arguing against ANY use of FMJ that comment that a handgun is only to use to fight your way to your long gun!
I had to pull my CC on someone once, and let me tell you, all I saw was the 'weapon' in his beltline, my hammer coming back, the cylinder revolving, and my sight post on his chest, in that order. Thinking back on it, I am glad I didn't have to shoot him. But also, I never once thought about what was behind him, while I was drawing. I was vaguely aware that there were only 3 people there, but not all their exact locations. I TRAIN not to shoot innocent bystanders. Think IDPA no-shoots in a 3D target field. I'm very careful about safety and would never endanger anyone if I could help it. But all that mattered in that one adrenaline soaked second was putting him down so I could go home and see my daughter again. That's it. I'm not trying to say anyone's wrong, but it's easy to say what you would or wouldn't do before you get put in a "situation". When you think that someone is going to kill you, you get tunnel vision.
Please use capital letters and punctuation properly in your post. It makes you seem like an ignorant child when you don't.
shouldn't there be a comma in between the words "child" and "when"
