Stingers are copper plated. These are copper jacketed with engineered bullets.
I run Stingers in the Beretta 21 (Bobcat), as it is so picky that them and MiniMags are about the only things that run reliably in it. Someone else's experience with ammo in their Bobcat won't be the same as mine, either. Where his doesn't run the stuff, mine might love it. Same as with the Federal Punch. I've seen other guys run it in their Beretta, but mine won't cycle a mag of it without several jams. |

Aguila has been pretty good ammo for me, once I got used to the smell.

A Seecamp is smaller in every dimension than a Bobcat, and you get 6 rounds of 32 ACP. Why carry a 22LR for defense?
