The Hornady critical defense line is the best choice in my opinion for home defense ammo as it retains weight and does not over penetrate. The low flash powder and nickel plated cases are a plus. very reliable ammo I highly recommend!

I didn't do any ballistic testing on this, but it is the closest defensive round to my preferred 75g load for my AR.
I keep this loaded in my defensive magazines.
