I liked this bit:
Now that we know that conventional ammo can create permanent damage that closely resembles the magnitude of permanent damage attainable by an R.I.P. 9mm round, we can figure out just how much destructive potential we’re looking at here. So what kind of devastating, ultra-powerful ammo did it take to make this comparable damage?

A few .22LR’s. From a handgun. A 3.5”-barrel Bersa Thunder .22, to be exact. Not even a rifle; it took a few shots from the most woefully inadequate defensive weapon on the market to recreate the damage profile of the new G2 R.I.P. ammo.
In 9mm I would prefer a Speer Gold Dot, I've used these in .40 S&W and never had an issue with them not feeding in my old Glock carry gun.

These are nice little screamers .40SW 165gr JHP Winchester Ranger / Lawman. Never had the accuracy issues this guy claims in either a Glock 23 or a Sig P229 (both .40SW)
