Thanks Solus, another reason I am willing to pay for the "good" stuff for SD.

I would like to see a test of Hornady's Critical Defense rounds.

They were too new to be included int he link I posted.

They have been compared to CorBon's PowrBall but only in looks.

All my TAP ammo is now in the practice can.

WOW!!!!  DPX wins big again.   A tiny bit less penetration, but still plenty and 48% greater expansion.

Time to buy stock in CorBon.

UPDATE: CorBon DPX coming soon in .32 ACP
« Reply #17 on: June 06, 2010, 09:40:41 AM »
UPDATE: Its now available.

Buy it here:
http://www.dakotaammo.net/Self-Defense-DPX/32-Auto-60gr-Self-Defense-DPX/DPX3260-20/200/Product

Corbon did some gel tests with P32 and posted them here:

The 32 auto DPX load clocked at @ 950 fps, penetrated 9" ( I was surprised) and recovered diameter was .60".

These results were obtained using a 4 layer denim barrier in front of 6x6x16" blocks of 10% ballistic gelatin.

Amazing.

I was worried about how much  Tom B. might be giving up going with a .32 rather than a .380...but he will be doing fine.

Yeah, its a little less energy, but IMO its not enough to make a difference. However, the .32 has a great deal less recoil then the .380 -- Its damn near close to shooting a hot .22 or .25 -- and rapid fire accuracy is greatly increased.
