This is my first post and I've tried to make sure I'm in the right forum. Please forgive me if not and perhaps you can point me in the right direction.
I just purchased a S&W SD40 VE specifically for home defense in an apartment setting. I would prefer to use Hydra Shoks for their stopping power and low wall penetration but I see where some folks experience FTFs with this model due to the smaller feed ramp. Others swear it is fine. I'm concerned about risking jams with HPs in a home defense scenario but want to have maximum stopping power as well. I can't afford to buy multiple boxes of HPs for testing.
Does anyone have any recommendations? Should I stick with a specific brand of HPs and hope it works out or should I go with a round nose and put my trust in a well placed shot? Thanks for any input!
