And a core argument supporting the use od JHP ammunition is along the lines of, "That's what the police use; they've determined it to be most suitable for self defense." That's a simple, non-technical explanation that a non-gun person on a jury will be able to process. (I can also add that I've been trained to use JHP ammunition. That's what Massad Ayoob, a well known expert, told me in class that I should use -- and I have the notes to prove it.)
