I use either Gold Dots or Critical Defense. Both have functioned well in the gun.

95gr flat nose The Ruger LCP was a bit stiff at first and fussy on rounds but after a few mags it eat anything now.
I was using Hydra shok in the summer, critical defense in the winter. I will prob use the CD year round b/c it feeds so well. The LCP is tight at first, and that little plastic part really helps it feed very smoothly...great stuff.
I have prob 300 thru the LCP and not one issue whatsoever.
102gr Golden Sabre.

I don't carry a gun to look for or start a fight. I carry one to finish a fight I never wanted to be in.
Hmmm.. I usually go with Gold Dot for my 9mm guns. Maybe I'll try the Hornady Critical Defense for the LCP. Thanks guys.

I always have mine loaded with Hornady Critical Defense.
Same for my Makarov, S&W 642, S&W Model 10s, and Glock 19.
