[HK40]

HK USP Compact with 155 gr Federal Hydra-Shoks. I like the 155 because I consider it the "all around" cartridge in the .40 caliber. It penetrates similar to the larger 180 gr bullets, but is faster (approaching the 135 gr. speeds) giving it better expansion reliability.

HK40,
I don't know about that... I shot the 135 load into gel personally... from different ranges and through differnt barriers. It proved with out a doubt to be the best...

I am wanting to try these tests on the Triton load that I been harping about... It may proove to be even better than the beloved 135 +P Cor-Bon. It is certainly the best bullet for .22LR.
