hot hand loads mostly in 9mm first one is a 158 grain 3/4 jacket hollow point after that its a mixed load of jacked hollow points and solids last couple of rounds is tracers,have a 20 rd mag in my pistol.
try some hand loads in 38 special with hollowbase wad cutters turned upside down for a huge hollow point that really expands ,never seen anything about not using your own special loads for defense rounds before.i thought the whole object is to stop them be for they get you .
It's pretty common knowledge that "Firearm Experts" advise against using reloads for 2 main reasons. First is reliability. It's too easy to contaminate a primer, undercharge, or have an over or under length case or some other unforeseen problem with reloads. Second is liability. If you are actually involved in a shooting and even if you are cleared by the police there is a good chance you will still get sued by the bad guy or his next of kin. An unscrupulous lawyer can try to say that you are really a vicious killer that cooked his own special killer load with intent to inflict maximum harm to my "Poor Client". Take a jury that don't understand firearms and you could have a very costly problem even if you wind up winning. This is the main reason that People like Massad Ayoob and other "Big Gun" firearm trainers advise against handloads in you self defense gun. They're great for practice, but not for carry. A good rule of thumb is find out what your local police use and use the same.
You joined the board this month. I see you have approx. 11 posts. Rather than ask a question that has likely been asked by numerous others before you, why not use the "search" feature and see if you can find an answer there?

These are a few threads that I found that had some very useful information after searching a few minutes. What's wrong with the opinion of the sales staff? They're working the ammo counter because they're the most knowledgeable people in the store, right? :wink:
