Shield Ammo Question

[Vartarg]

I'm thinking about buying a .40 Shield, and am interested in folks experiences and preference with ammo. For EDC I rotate my Glock 19 or G23, and carry 180gr Speer Gold Dots in the G23. I prefer "heavy for caliber" as a general rule, but would like to hear some feedback on what you guys are carrying in your Shield .40's? Thanks. George

When I got my Shield, the only thing available that day was 165gr ammo. From the get go, I liked the way my gun handled it, and it was pretty accurate, so I stuck with it. I've shot WWB, American Eagle, Freedom reman, Hornady Critical Defense, Speer Gold Dots, and not one malfunction. I use the Gold Dots as my main SD ammo.

IMO, you can't go wrong with Speer Gold Dots. It's what I use in all my SD firearms.

I carry whatever 165 or 180 grain I can find. I've shot gold dots, critical duty, hst, and golden sabers and all are accurate from my 40 shield. Pretty much which ever I can find the cheapest.
