John, Just buy some Winchester Personal Protection at WALMART. It don't cost an arm and a leg......and will do the job. Bob

thank you bob i picked up winchester super-x 115gr. silvertip, hollow point part #x9mmshp thank you 50 to a box $39.99

Way to go, John!!! Buying the "Designer Ammo" is for those that can easily afford it......there are alot of them here. WALMART ammo is good enough to do the job....if you do yours.

BTW, even though Super X is not the high performance ammo anymore.........it was the top of the line for Winchester, 25 years ago. Bob

thank you bob im still waiting for federal hydrashok 124gr. to come in i think thats even better right

John, I like the heavier weight of the HydraShok ammunition. I am not certain if it is better but the heavier bullet should penetrate better.

The Hornady is decent ammo, expands a bit less and penetartes a bit more than many other 124gr 9mm loads.

Years ago we used the 124gr and 147gr Hydrashock as issued duty ammo, both were very poor performers in actual shootings.

In 9mm I have found that the 147gr and 124gr +p Gold Dot, HST and Ranger-T are about as good a choice as can be made.

The 115gr Winchester loadings would be way down on my list of prefered carry loads due to lots of expansion, limited penetration, and poor barrier performance.
