Self Defense Ammunition is it effective?


Self Defense Ammunition is it effective?  From what I understand from my research the self defense round has advantages and disadvantages.

advantages
-For use in the home the bullet expands quickly there is less chance of it going through a wall and hitting someone you didn’t intend to shoot, like the guy next door.
-They also expand quickly too almost twice their size, so it makes a larger entrance wound. 

disadvantages
-They also expand quickly therefor they spend their energy quickly and don’t have a lot of penetration so the bullet may not stop your assailant, unlike their jacketed counterpart.
-If there is anything between you and the assailant there is not much chance of it penetrating the object they are hiding behind.

There are good and bad. But no matter what self defense bullet you decide  to use, please use it with care, because once it is fired you can’t call it back, only use them in a life or death situation.
