It ain't quite "malarky", ElectroMotive. The VAST majority of CCW combat occurs @ short distances (under 7 yards), and is over without a reload. I didn't make that up--I learned it from Massad Ayoob. While ANYTHING is possible, IMHO the chances of an ordinary citizen (not a gangbanger) facing "6 or more opponents" is far fetched. In over 50 years of shooting and reading about weapons and gunfights, and over 30 years of training people as an NRA Certified Instructor, I can't remember coming across even ONE such incident. (doesn't mean that there isn't one--BUT it is rare). In any event, I like your choices of ammo. I carry a 686+ and a 642 loaded with Speer 135gr Gold Dot +P, AND 12 additional rounds in 2 Bianchi Speed Strips everyday. Your "duty" in a hostile confrontation is governed by the laws of the jurisdiction wherein the incident occurs, and may depend upon such factors as the existence and extent of "the Castle Doctrine".
