I carry Double Tap 140 Gr. in my Glock 32 with .40 SW barrel. Powerful and accurate stuff.

Defaultpersonal carry ammo?

I carry a 380 always as a backup and alternate it with 40s/w semiauto,
glock19 or rugerP90. I always use CorBon JHP and I prefer the loads be
a +P or P+P powder load. If I can not get CorBon I go for Federal ammo.

CCI/SPEER Gold Dots in any caliber do an excellent job on expansion.

For civil liability considerations....check what your local PD/Sheriff/State Police use.

What ever you choose...make sure you test some for function in the pistol you carry them in !

DefaultHornady

I usually load my Glock 30 and 21SF with Hornady TAP 230GR. +P. They work well in my guns.
