Hornady HAP question

[Trigger Mike]

Wilson Combat sells Hornady HAP loaded ammo at 200 grain 45acp one with 880fps and another with 770 fps.  .  The page says that it does not expand so is not good for defense.  I got to thinking though, lets say your magazine is loaded for plinking with the HAP rounds, seems that the lower 770 fps would be better as it would not be as likely to over penetrate even though it does not expand.  am I wrong?

I would listen to Hornady.

It's a plate shooting bullet.........

Might not cycle a pistol set up for 'hardball' level loads.
