Article: 2:1

	I've just been reading about defensive ammo in the
April 1986 issue of COMBAT HANDGUNS. They say  that the most 
effective manstopper is the Glaser Safety Slug, but this load is 
not easily obtained around here. Does anybody know how it works?
The author said that better than 90% of the people shot by these
died at the scene. Another good manstopper is the Hydro-Shok. This
round is more easily had around here but why? The article doesn't go
into how it works. 

	Another interesting round is the Quadraplex bullet from 
Power Plus Enterprises, Inc. P.O. Box 6070, Columbus, Ga. 31907.
In .38 special it is a 65 grain soft point in front of 2 50 grain 
wadcutters. It produces 3, 5, and 10 inch patterns at distances of
7, 15, and 25 meters respectively. It's also available in .357 with
3 wadcutters. Now this sounds like a great in-home defensive load.
