In 92 I was issued 147 gr Hydra Shoks. We used to very good effect for years until we switched to 147 gr Black Talons. These were awesome and left the nastiest wounds that I saw first hand. Then over the years we used golden sabers, and currently Gold dots. All 147gr because they penetrate heavy clothing better. The Talons are my favorite to this day.

I don't get all caught up in the +p and +p+ game it makes no sense to me how ammo company's determine one from another. Some ammo company's straight lie and some set up the perfect case scenario shoot a couple hundred rounds and the highest number they get is what they put on the side of the box. I swear some of them use a carbine to get the crazy high velocitys. That's why you're videos are so valuable to me they either confirm the same results or save me a lot of time and money trying garbage ammo and sometimes you find ammo that is awesome and I never heard of and I can't wait to try it.

In the late 80's our agency was issued 147 Gn Hydra Shok standard pressure which worked great. Then some clowns decided to go to the 124 Gn Hydra Shok which was a terrible mistake. Before the switch we were averaging about an 80 percent one stop shot, but with the 124 Gn it went to about a 40 percent one stop shot. It ended up taking 5 to six rounds to stop the perps and we got a lot of backlash from the community about shooting perps multiple times. Eventually after a series of tests we ended up choosing the Winchester T series 124 Gn plus P which worked out great ! When the perps came in to Medstar for treatment, the trauma surgeons were shocked to the amount of damage that bullet did to the patients they treated !

Back in my LEO days, I chrono'ed our 115 gr Federal +p+ ammo. Out of my Glock 26 (right at 3.5" bbl) I got 1250fps and from a 10.5" (I think) Colt 635 I got 1475fps. Odd how 9 more grains of bullet weight and just under .5" of barrel cost the newest version so much. I wish I'd had a full-size duty pistol to test it from back then, but I figure it had to be hitting close to 1300 from, say a Glock 17 or BHP. Maybe they reengineered it to meet FBI penetration requirements? The old load was not much for penetration but had outstanding street results from everything I've read. In any case, old or new, I would not want to stand in front of one and would feel pretty good totin' them. In fact, 9BPLE are what's in my Glock 26 and BHP right now. For my Walther P99 I went with 124gr HST. Those get great test results, though in the one shooting we had using them, the results were underwhelming although I don't know that most other loads would have done better.

That compact shot right there is a perfect example of tumbling due to irregular expansion. Of course it looked devastating.

It's not as obvious this time around as the bullet (at least to me) looked like it was facing forward. As I'm sure you've seen in the past, many bullets often only do .5 or perhaps 1.5 rotations during a tumble, which would in turn make the bullet face backward. There's just too much evidence to say it was tumbling and not much to the contrary.

I have some old 44mag and 357mag. But no 9mm. HST does the job.

The .38 Special 147 grain +P+ Hydrashok should be tested. It was made for Law Enforcement Use Only.

124 +p hst is faster ain't It? I wanna see a 147 grain +p HST again. After Federal added the double canneloure it would be nice to get +p back
