Great info in that post, it has been posted a few times and should be a sticky!!

The only exception to HSTs being excellent is their .380 (which I don't have) so I'll take it! I did do my research before choosing HST anyhow  8)

Me too. I actually switched from the Ranger T +P+ for the reasons you see in the test, they didn't expand reliably. As for .380 I switched to Underwood extreme penetrators. gave up on expanding bullets for little pocket guns.
