I've been known too carry handloads. I've got no problem with it. If someone tries to bring it up in court, the defenses are simple, and only serve to make me look more responsible and conscientious.
Panama, those sound more like varmint bullets then self defense bullets.
Might wanna watch this video, I believe they "are" defensive rounds.
And they look like they would be DAMN good and pretty safe regarding over penetration. A little pricey, but I ordered a box and we'll see.
