Do you carry reloads or factory ammo in your ccw???

[boxer13]

In the unlikely event that I'll have to use my gun to protect myself or someone else. Factory all the way, I don't want to give the DA or plantiff depending on circumstances any "ammo" if you'll excuse the pun against me in court.

Factory for me; only. I've reloaded for ever and my rounds do not fail. But, I wouldn't want to try explaining my loading practices to a jury. period.

well of course they havnt had anything go wrong in a gagillion rounds. im simply stating there is no "quality control" that will differ than that of a reloader.if you put these rounds together as you should, they should not fail. if the factory puts them together the same way and checks them a million times they shouldnt fail either. neither one or the other is more reliable period.

I only carry factory because I do not trust my reloads with my life. I have had a time when I made a bad batch, forgot to set the sizing die even though it was depriming and had a few rounds jam. Since then i have second guessed my loads, while they shoot just fine, I would prefer factory and the liability issue, just because you have a good lawyer doesn't mean you won't get a terrible judge/jury.
