I don't have a CCL but have thought often of getting one. Currently have an xDm 9mm with critical defense for home protection and a Rem870 with birdshot as well. My biggest worry is over penetration hence the hollow points and lighter shot.

I'm of the mindset of practice what you plan to use. So my carry piece will be a 9mm or 40s&w. The price between the 2 is practically negligible when you realize your life or that of your family could rely on how well versed you are with your particular set up. I'm good friends with a retired state trooper who still only shoots his old service weapon because after years of practice and qualifications it is now just instinct or muscle memory to put rounds on target with it. Anything else feels uncomfortable and that is not an additional distraction you want with lives on the line.

I'm curious why do you carry a FMJ in the chamber and not a SD like the rest of your magazine?
