It has a distinguished look that’s easy to pick out. Hornady Critical Duty is around that has a great reputation and is chosen by many. The third round is one he has limited experience with but according to his research is a good option. The Federal HST ammo is actually Grant’s choice for his everyday carry and he highly recommends it. These rounds have also tested high in the FBI ballistics tests and have performed well in Grant’s own tests as well. The second round Grant selected was Federal HST defense rounds. This is the round Grant chose first because he has the longest track record of using it. It was selected by the police department because of the way it performed in the FBI ballistics tests. Years ago Speer Gold Dot is what Grant used on the SWAT team. We asked Chief Instructor Grant LaVelle to lay out his top three choices for everyday carry. For everyday carry, we need to have quality defense rounds in our guns. We need to reserve FMJ rounds for our range practice sessions only. The projectile of the round is not as lethal which makes it not a smart choice for carrying and on top of that the powder loads will be less consistent too. ![]() These rounds are not produced with as much care as defense rounds. It doesn’t really matter who the manufacturer is or how reputable they are FMJ rounds are for practice only. So, what type of ammo should we carry? Let’s start with what we should, under no circumstances, have in our everyday carry and that is full metal jacket rounds.

After all if you don’t have ammo your gun is just a paperweight. The truth is we need to choose our ammo with as much care, if not more care, as we do our guns and holsters. The less shots we can fire to stop a threat the better. When it comes to stopping a threat we need something that has been manufactured with consistent quality and has a high lethality. As part of our everyday carry, we need to be very concerned about the ammunition that’s in our guns. ![]()
