You could have easily shot him in the leg with a standard round instead of blowing his leg off. Now he can't work and deserves compensation.

If it were me, I would practice mostly with the homeloaded rounds to save money...but I would put enough of a standard round through the gun that I was comfortable with it and use those for daily CC or home protection.

Perhaps good advice. If I need to shoot someone, it will be the worst day of my life. But I'm not going to be going through my ammo inventory before taking the shot. If an atty can make the case that my being cheap shows a malicious intent, then maybe I deserve what happens.
