I’ll stick with Gold Dots.
Speer Gold Dots or Winchester Rangers are my carry loads.
I find it amusing that all Winchester needed to do was re-name the scary-sounding Black Talon to the innocuous-sounding Ranger and all is well. Don’t tell the hoplophobes that the Rangers are “product improved” compared to the BT’s. There are some seriously impressive You Tube jello shoots with .45 ACP 230gr Rangers.
Hornady Critical defense. This round sounds optimal if your opponent is naked.
