Just keep in mind that BB's hardcast wadcutter is just that, hard, and geneally speaking will not expand but instead will punch through whatever you shoot with it. I used to subscribe to this school of thought for self-defense and & loaded hardcast wadcutters in my carry gun, but have since decided that I still want penetration but with at least some chance of expansion so I switched to a soft lead SWC hollowpoint. I'm not saying that "over-penetration" is bad (it's sure better than under-penetration), but you have to be aware of it.
