DocM Posted April 21, 2012 Share Posted April 21, 2012 Got this in my YouTube update today. Confirms my impression that this round is a BEAST Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gerowen Posted April 22, 2012 Share Posted April 22, 2012 Nice round, whoever gets hit with one of those is going to be hating life, assuming they survive that long, :p Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tuishimi Posted April 25, 2012 Share Posted April 25, 2012 Looks like it will do some serious damage. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
necroxd Posted April 25, 2012 Share Posted April 25, 2012 Yeah. Specifically made for shooting grizzly bears. :/ Can't find HST in Houston. So bought PDX1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
IceBreakerG Posted April 25, 2012 Share Posted April 25, 2012 Looks like I need to get a box of those for my HK. I've been carrying hydra-shoks for years, but was looking for something that would be more effective/consistent if I ever needed to use it (which I hope I don't). Seems like the HST is hard to find though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
necroxd Posted April 25, 2012 Share Posted April 25, 2012 Funniest thing, all the gun shops refused to sell me PDX1 and kept say police issue only. Then I found em at Walmart. The Laughing Man 1 Share Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DocM Posted April 26, 2012 Author Share Posted April 26, 2012 Walmart sells a 135 grain .40 HST in silver box that is surplus from a DHS/ICE order (XM40HA) - $23 for 50. It was designed for the HK P2000sk (subcompact) they use for conceald, and is loaded for barrels of less than 4 inches. Less risk of overpenetration too. I carry it on my SIG P239 and P250 subcompact. As to others, order them off the net - http://www.cheaperthandirt.com http://www.ammunitiontogo.com/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
necroxd Posted May 2, 2012 Share Posted May 2, 2012 That would be perfect for my Sigma .40. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DocM Posted May 2, 2012 Author Share Posted May 2, 2012 My best friend has fired them out of his Sigma .40 and they worked fine. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Konstanov Posted May 3, 2012 Share Posted May 3, 2012 Eh, I still prefer 9mm+P for carrying for self-defense. Then again the only .45 I currently own is a longslide and would be a bitch to conceal. Also DocM, what is the purpose of owning a Desert Eagle? From my experience only tacticool ******s own them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DocM Posted May 3, 2012 Author Share Posted May 3, 2012 The DE was a gift from my late father in law. If I'm in bear or pig country my choices are one of the .45's (SIG 1911 or P250 w/full soze frame) or more often the Magnum Research BFR .500 S&W Mag.
