One thing I've noticed is how far behind SD bullet technology is compared to hunting bullets. I attribute this to the fact there is a lot more practical knowledge of bullet performance on animals than people. Are animals so different that technology isn't applicable? Hunters have madenthe switch from big and slow to small and fast calibers. I guess therebis a big difference between velocities and sectional density between rifle and pistol ammo. My SD carbine is loaded with Barnes VorTx ammo with Barnes TTSX bullets because I've seen the bullet work very well on critters. Its crazy thay we have 6 common SD cartridges for handguns (380 ACP, 38 SPC, 357 Magnum, 9x19, 40 S&W and 45 ACP) while we have 6 or more 30 caliber hunting cartridges that are fairly common (30-30, 308, 30-06, 300 WSM, 300 Win Mag, 300 WBY, 300 Ultra).
