All seem to be good choices. If they function and are reliable in you guns of choice. About the 32 I have a kel-tec p-32 and tried a few loads in wet newsprint. And got suprising results. Fired from 7 yards all the xtps expanded and penetrated 9 to 91/2 inches. Silvertips went 7 and none expanded. Hydra shocks 7 inches one expanded one didnt and one only halfway expanded. Im getting ready to try gold dot and the cor-bon We'll see hoe they do.

No comment, I don't shoot anything smaller than a 9mm/38 Special

9mm - 124 gr. HST (PM9, EMP, CZ 75 Compact)

Good enough

.40 - 165 gr. Gold Dot (Glock 23)

Good choice

.45 - 230 gr. +P Black Hills (5" Steel 1911)

I like the 230 Grain non +P Black Hills or the 185 Grain +P CorBon DPX myself

.357 Mag - 158 gr. Buffalo Bore High Velocity (SP 101, 686)
all are HP's

I like 125 Grain JHP's in this caliber and it's all I shoot in this caliber

OK, that's my "rating".
