I believe I understand the reasoning against hand loads for personal defense. I've read some well articulated explanations from legal professionals on the matter.
Consider some reality though...
The police arrive at my house after a 911 home invasion call, and there's a dead bad guy in my living room with a machete in his hand. It's not like the cops will ask to see my ammo, and use that as a decision point whether to take me into custody. Even under the best circumstances (all things considered following such an ordeal) I'd call an attorney and spend some money just to protect myself. Depending on the political climate, the D.A. could have an agenda - or not.
If it's really "go time", and I or loved ones face death or injury, I really don't care how I respond.
Being judged by 12 is better than carried by 6.
Thanks
