As an aside, if the underlying issue is a lawyer convincing a jury that the shooter cooked up "the most deadly handload possible" what would the same lawyer do if the same shooter carried something like Cor-Bon or Buffalo Bore. I could see some lawyer arguing the same issue, "No, the killer couldn't be satisfied with plain old Winchester or Remington, he had to have what is advertised to have the most power and make the biggest hole".....

As with all of these types of threads, it's mostly "what if" and speculation.
If one is worried about his/her choice of ammo, he/she should also be worried about the choice if firearm as well.
If a lawyer can put you in the hot seat for your ammo, he can most certainly do the same for your choice of firearm.
"Ladies and Gentleman of the jury, this is the 45 caliber handgun Mr. X use to kill poor Leroy. That's right a 45 caliber, the biggest baddest handgun caliber made. Mr X has several other handguns in smaller more friendly calibers like the 9mm. When Mr X armed himself that night he did not take his smaller more friendly 9mm, NOOOO, he took the biggest baddest handgun he owned. He new if he was going to shoot someone the 45 caliber would do the most damage and without a doubt kill his victim instantly. If Mr X would have taken the smaller 9mm poor Leroy might still be alive today."
