    Can someone recommend me some good .40 caliber ammo? I want to get something that Ican keep in the house for home protection. I just dont want to get raped and buy really expensive ammo if it isnt necessary.

    Federal hydra-shoks is my SD ammo of choice. Speer gold
    Dots are also a great choice.

    If you are only keeping this in the home and are worried about ricochets or hitting a family member on the other side of a wall...you might want to consider pre-fragmented/frangible ammo.

    Such as: http://magsafeonline.com

    Remmington Golden Saber is the industry standard for hollow points, everything else is pretty much measured against it. FYI.

    The ammo that you will keep loaded you will most likely never even shoot (other than a little bit of practice), so don't worry about it costing a little more than range/practice ammo

    +1 for federal hydra shock, what I keep in my glock.

    Thanks Doug for the link and everyone else that chimed in.

    I ended up getting the Winchester Bonded. I read great reviews about it, it was relatively cheap, and was easily available at my local walmart.

    now that you are armed and extremely dangerous, you and the wife need to take a gun safety course. This way you don't shoot yourself in the hand or shoot your lover in the thigh.

    what makes you think this is my first gun purchase? I was just adding to the guns I already had. I came across a great deal on the Glock and I couldn't pass it up. I do need to take the wife to a gun safety course.

    A little late to the game, but I'm using Federal HSTs.
