What kind of Ammo do you all carry in your gun? Do you change it with the seasons? Do you say, go from Corbon Hollowpoint in the summer to Federal Hydrashoks in the winter so as to penetrate thick coats?
I have been carrying Winchester Silvertip Hollowpoints in .38+P all summer. I am about to go out at some point this week and get some Federal Hydrashok .38+P for winter carry. Don't want to come across some guy in a thick wet coat and have my HP's just bump him around.
I also, when I am at home or in motel, put glazers in my gun while indoors.

I will also add, that when wearing shoulder holster, I keep the two speedloaders on it's opposite side loaded with Corbon .38+P for a little more punch than the Winchester Silvertips in gun and other two speedloaders
