[skeet]

I have also used ol skeeter's hollow base wad cutter loads..inverted . It was a very good load for self defense and I can tell ya there is no way the prosecution could use it for an argument in a court that you were using a hollow point. I have actually seen those ol things go sideways at a distance. As you said ..just empty the gun and throw the rest away....or empty all of 'em in the creep.

GOB I also applaud your patient way of trying to figure the best safest way to use your firearm. I personally don't think the Glasers are the way to go. Can yu show a preponderance of departments using the ammo for your stated reasons? Heck during the time of the skymarshals they didn't worry about the ammo used by their officers. There was a LOT of talk about explosive decompression in aircraft....but that was a worry that really wasn't necessary. Does the department you work for use this type of ammo(glaser)?? Try using a tried true round that has been shown to work well in defensive situations in numerous times and places. And prosecutions try all the time to put the most negative spin on any case they are trying. The hollow point argument just won't hold water...as there are a large number of police agencies using them. The defense attorney would only have to point that out and say then youare accusing the police of premeditated murder because they use hollowpoints. Boy could you see the Reverend(J J) getting ahold of that in big city papers. Hell every police shooting would be a murder by the police.
