I find it to be excellent in all my semi autos - good accuracy and expansion. Even the component bullet is a winner, often cheaper than Gold Dots

Very popular for S&W made PPK's in .380 ACP as if feeds well and has good expansion.

I think you can find YouTube videos about it in .38 Special, maybe in .357. The .357 load is medium-powered, and suited for smaller .357's and those who can't handle full .357 recoil well.
In .45 ACP, it's the issue load for those FBI agents still authorized to carry .45's.

I used some of these in a 380 ACP to test expansion in a recently dead antelope. Angling the shot from behind the last rib, aiming at the off shoulder. One shot exited, the other was lodged in the off shoulder. Perfect expansion on the recovered bullet. I posted the pics on this forum some time ago. A very limited test but the test medium cant be beat.

I carry it in mine. It is our issue ammo...works well. BTW - It is the non-bonded variety...the bonded didn't expand well enough until you hit +P velocities.
