The whole point of a .45 is that it doesn't need to expand to blow a big hole in the target.

Give me 230-grain FMJ any day of the week.

Any experts want to chime-in on how this would compare to how SS109 round fragments at 2.5 times the velocity? I know it is comparing apples to oranges, but when you have both apples and oranges at home, which one do you choose?

Do you like the XDS? I was wanting to wait for the 9mm XDS. But may not weight and get the XDM Sub. I have the largest XDM 9mm, but want a good conceal weapon. I’m not sure I’ll like the narrow handle on the XDS though.

".45 ACP +P"?? There is not any such cartridge. Look at the headstamp stupid! Cartridge designations are established by the Sporting Arms and Ammunition Manufacturers Institute (SAAMI) and the American National Standards Institute (ANSI).

There never has been and will not be a cartridge with that designation.

For that matter, the designation ".45 ACP" was obsoleted prior to World War II and replaced with ".45 Auto". Some folks (most gun writers and almost all wantabe gun nuts) never seem to get the word.

Again, look at the headstamps stupid!

And don't waste your time and mine listing all the off-shore manufactures and some ill informed domestic gun manufactures that also are using obsolete terminology.

It is no more correct to use obsolete cartridge designations than it is to address a married woman by her maiden name.

All ammunition made by SAAMI members and other responsible manufactures carries the warning, "Use only in firearms with this designation stamped on the barrel or frame."

If you actually have a pistol marked ".45 ACP" use only ammunition with that headstamp.

Just because Caddric's have similar physical dimensions does not mean they are interchangeable, i.e. +P loadings versus non +P loadings.
