Newb question...
What are the pros and cons regarding Lighter bullet w/more velocity vs heavier with a bit less velocity.
I would imagine in a home defense situation, over penetration would be a concern...( I'm trying to be serious���� Lol)
I suppose I'm asking about the purpose and reasons for each.
I did attempt a search,but probably didn't use the correct term.
I did SP duty when on shore in the USN decades ago,just shot what they gave us..
But recently got back into shooting and I want to learn it all..
Any suggested 'newbie ' reading?
Thanks!!
