My main priority is 9mm. I usually carry a M&P shield. I am also extremely low for 45s for my 1911 and I have a 357 security six that I am planing to start carrying while working on the ranch.What carry gun & caliber?

I agree I am planning in buying 200 - 500 rounds to start with so I can confirm feeding reliability in a couple of pistols and magazines. And have enough to carry for a while. But I do want to be able to find some locally if needed. Hydra-shoks have been hard for me to find, especially for a good price.Your choice of critical duty is a very good one as was the Hydro-Shocks. Since it's fairly affordable you should get 200 rounds or so of the same lot if possible. Shoot 100 rounds and see how well the gun runs using it. If your satisfied you have a few years of carry ammo to swap out as you desire.

i believe that's where I got my HST.Any good quality defense round will work. I mainly stick to Gold Dot in 9mm and right now I am running Federal HST in 45. I get my carry ammo from here:

With the 45 being a 1911, I would try several different rounds to find one that is 100% reliable. As for 357, I go with what I can find the best deal on. Right now I am running Gold Dot or Ranger.
If I might suggest... get a really good holster with a retention device for your Ruger. I have seen a couple go missing while doing chores on the ranch. One minute it's bouncing along in a cheap nylon uncle mikes thumb break holster and the next it's just gone somewhere on the ranch. Might not even notice it for hours.
