HP ammo is always preferable for personal defense, but you need to make sure that it’s reliable in your weapon. I’d make sure that it can fire 100 rds. without any FTF’s. If they don’t pass the test, you’re better off using the FMC stuff.

THAT is a great point! I have female family members that carry .32 and .380 self defense weapons. I can't remember which one of them jambs. But one of them won't feed many types of JHP. They don't make it up the ramp before the slide hangs up. If I remember correctly, we did find a type that seemed reliable (50+ rounds). But I do not recall any specifics.
