“These new Copper Polymer Projectile seem to be the best I can now find in Self Defence ammo. Reading all about them makes it sound as if they will be a better choice than any of the other available ammo, hollow or solid point. As far as firing them, they SAY that they are less recoil, however, I tried these NovX 9mm Luger, a different Copper Polymer Projectile, and two other types of ammo, one HP and one solid copper. As far as firing them out of my S&W M&P Shield, I really noticed no difference while holding the pistol in my hand.
Yes, they are wickedly expensive but if the science is true, these and other Copper Polymer Projectiles have much better stopping power for self-defense and that is what it is really all about.”
