As the title states, I was wondering if you gents had any suggestions of some good home defense ammo for my Colt LE6920.
A variable that might make a difference is that I live in a house opposed to an apartment or duplex. My closest neighbors are about 20 yards away. The rest of my immediate neighbors are roughly 30-50 yards away. I live on about 1/3 of an acre plot in a suburban neighborhood, so I highly doubt that I'd ever need to send a long range shot to defend my property. So, any ammo intended for accuracy at long ranges are probably not needed (unless it's also good for CQC).
I received a couple boxes of Speer LE Gold Dot Duty Ammo (.223 64gr) and Federal Fusion (.223 62gr) yesterday. I plan to try a box of each tomorrow at the range to make sure that either of those choices and my rifle will get along. I'm not even sure if those choices are appropriate for home defense ammo, but I figured that I had to start somewhere.
Any suggestions and input would be greatly appreciated!
