Hey Everyone,
I don't want to sound like a fruitloop but I am very concerned and uncertain about what is going on in our country these days. I am feeling the need to be prepared for thing that I never would have thought could occur here.
I hope that I am wasting my time but I am setting in supplies for a SHTF situation.
One item on my list is .45ACP ammo. Ideally I would load up a bunch of 230gr HP's. Unfortunately I don't have them on hand and don't have a mold.
I do have 3000+ 200 gr SWC's. Does anyone have any data on the effectiveness of a cast 200 gr SWC as a defensive round?
I know that it is not ideal. I wonder if it would be adequate? Or would it be not worth the trouble?
I am hoping to avoid sourcing and spending $$ on molds and lead to cast HP's when I have 3000 SWCs on the shelf. I would rather spend that money on powder.
What do you all think?
