I carry Speer Gold Dot 124 grain +p jhp short barrel.

The ballistics on modern 9mm ammo like Gold Dot 124 grain +P is not your grandma's ammo. It will more than take care of business. One thread I read reported 13 inches deep and 3 inch wide gashes in ballistic gel. 3 inches wide is a fire hose and we know how much liguid can travel through a 3 inch hose. This is a family friendly sight so I am not going to say anymore but I think we can all get the picture Gold Dot is a get the job done round.
