The Jefferson County Ky. PD carries G22's. I encountered a couple of very nice Officers in a bank who agreed to talk for a while. (I had just puchased my G27.) They told me that they had practiced with several brands and bullet weights of .40 S&W, however their favorite had boiled down to Federal 135 gr. "PD" Hydra-Shoks. Since then, I've only used that brand and load. It's very accurate in my G27. I've inspected spent brass from my G27 and have not found any visual bulges. However, I'm not a reloader and have not taken any measurements.
My G27 IS my favorite carry pistol and I have faith in it. I do read these kB stories and have found none with the 135gr "PD". They mostly seem to happen when the unfortunate shooter is using the 180gr stuff. (I won't even talk about reloads or lead bullets.) If anyone has heard of or seen a .40 caliber Glock blow up while the shooter was using 135gr "PD" Hydra-Shoks, I'd like to hear about it.
Thanks,
KR
