Try defending your choice of that ammo in court.
Civilian self defense is not military combat.
What is needed for one is inappropriate for the other.
Indeed, requirements even change in military engagements, depending on the mission.
What is needed in a jungle is not what is needed in a desert is not what is needed in the woods, etc.
You don't have to worry about what ammo you use in a military conflict, unless you modify it, as you have no choice in what to use.
As a civilian, however, it is critical that you choose your equipment wisely, because you always have THREE battles for each engagement.
First, you have to survive the fight.
Second, you have to defend against possible criminal charges.
Third, regardless of the outcome of the second, you have to defend against civil charges brought about by family seeking revenge.
You might want to reconsider your choices and make those that will allow you to win all three battles.
The cost of losing any one of them is considerable.
There is no place for macho in a two-way shooting gallery - military or civilian.

That's why we served, in the first place.

First Thank You for Your Service in the Military Serving Our Country and Our People....
Your Post is Obviously Intelligent and Well Thought out....As someone once said,,,""" Every Bullet You Fire has a Lawyer Attached to it """ And as someone else once said,,,, """ Train as You Fight, Fight as You Train """
However I would still disagree and this is just my opinion...You said there were 3 Battles actually there are 4..

The fourth Battle is what someone once said,,,, """ Better to Be Judged by 12 than Carried by Six """
The fourth Battle is Actually the First Battle,,,If You don't Survive the Gunfight the other 2 Battles don't matter.
