Now, how much do you want to bet me that, if he had used a handload or something like Zombie Max ammo from Hornady, we'd be hearing about it in the news today?
So this hypothetical-never-happened paranoia says my rounds not only have to be factory ammo, certain kinds of factory ammo now are to be excluded?

Sorry, Friend. I'll stick with historical reality. The use of reloads has never convicted an innocent of killing someone in self defense.
Use factory ammo if you are more comfortable with it.

To the OP, it is recommended that you practice with the weight of bullet you also carry for SD. Otherwise, POA and POI will not line up and in the event of "an event" you'll have your hands full as it is. Learn to "aim small and you will miss small". It also would not hurt to run through a few rounds of the real deal during each practice so you'll be used to the recoil.
