    9MM Hollowpoints: Not impressive

    Not impressive looking at least :cool:. I now see why they use .45 or .40 for the glamor shots on websites. And I wondered why the ones in the plastic cases (federal?) were in cardboard for 9mm. The numbers look good, and a few water jugs will probably impress me, but I think I was spoiled...
