    Never said that V-Crown was my first or even second, third choice. I've got plenty of 147 HST from years ago, so I'm good for now.

    I was merely responding to the broad assertion that "V-Crown JHP...

    Based on BrassFetcher's testing, the 115gr V-Crown shows quite acceptable results (with the exception of a few auto glass shots that didn't meet penetration minimums) when fired from a full-sized gun.

    What do you make of the argument that it's useful to have an intermediate force option on you when you're also carrying a gun? This is one of the arguments that swayed me to almost always having a...

    No worries. I was mainly just concerned that you might end up ruining a cake recipe if your kitchen scale was telling you that 500g of flour was actually 370grams :p

    17 ounces loaded? No way that's correct. Everywhere I look, I see ~18 ounces unloaded for a 365, and 11 rounds of 9mm is going to add another ~5 ounces.

    I think Phlster might be coming out with some kind of wedge/foam pad product soon, so could be worth the wait to see what they've come up with since they often have a unique take.

    I'm still surprised that someone hasn't come out with a slightly larger/differently shaped safety lever. Guess the MS models aren't huge sellers.

    I've owned both, but sold the 365XL pretty quickly in favor of the 43x. I'm still not 100% settled on that choice, less because of any real shortcomings with the 43x and more because the 365 threads...
