   What ammo should I use in my 1911?

   • Hornady Critical Defense is one of the most trusted self-defense rounds. These are the brass-cased rounds that I trust in my 1911. The jacketed hollow point has a polymer tip, which helps with accuracy and expansion to lower over-penetration. If you think a 185gr bullet is too light, you can try the Hornady Custom 45 ACP + P ammo 230 Grain JHP.
