More often than not I carry a Kimber Ultra CDP II (.45). What ammo do you folks carry and trust?

"What type of ammo to CHL?" This was a thread last month in the 'New to CHL' section. I don't know how to post a link to it. It had 32 posts to it. You might want to look for it.
I carry Speer Gold Dots. I like the 'short barrel' stuff they make.

You can also just find the thread, right click on the subject, and copy the shortcut. Then reply to the current thread and paste the link in like I did.

I keep Speer Gold Dots in the 9mm sitting on the night stand.
I just received my 2 boxes of Hornady Critical Defense FTX ammo in the mail today!!! So it will replace the Remington JHP in my LCP.
This Hornady FTX ammo is some mean looking stuff.

I have mags loaded with 230 Gr, Ranger XST, Power Ball and Hydra Shocks. I don't have an idea which one would perform best but all three cycle in my 1911's without issue.

For my Sig 239 9mm and my S&W 640 .38spl I use Hornady Critical Defense
For my .45 (Kimber custom compact) I carry Hornady TAP
I have become a huge fan of the Hornady Ammo. The Critical defense is by far the best ammo I have used at the range through my 9 and 38. And based on everything I have read about it the ammo is really designed for defensive situations.
