What do you use for EDC ammunition?
What do you use for EDC ammunition?
Please specify caliber grain of bullet type (hollow point, ball, etc.) brand If you want to throw in a reason why you use that particular combination, that would be interesting, too. Wanted to make this a poll, but the combinations were infinite.  I use .40 S&W, 165 gr, Spear GoldDot hollow points.

.45 ACP, Federal 200gr EFMJ. I have seen some different reports on the EFMJ but most seem to agree on very consistent expansion, even though the expanded size is a bit smaller than JHPs. Also, I figure I never have to worry about any JHP feeding issues.
(I also have 124gr EFMJs in the 9mm.)
