"Reasonably priced compared to other defensive ammo. Accurate and clean. Will buy again."
"My new carry ammo for 3. 5" 45! Tried this in a 3. 5" 45 against Hornady 185 critical defense and Prvi Partizan Defense 185. This load won out! Super accurate and more controllable than the other two I tried."
