Wow. Though I tend to avoid +P, for that price I'd get it.
That 115gr Speer GD video was good...though 115 ammo does seem to lose more % of velocity than 124 and 147 from what I've read....so it might be 70-100fps slower out of the Shield barrel (vs the G19 in the test) and not perform at that level. I, personally, find the recoil a bit snappy in those lightweight, fast loads, so I prefer 930-940fps 147gr, though 1025-1050 130gr standard pressure would be my ideal.
I really think at most common CCW distances of 3-6 feet, no one's gonna notice the difference between most good brands regardless of weight and speed, so paying 75-100% more for one ammo over another just encourages everyone to market their latest, greatest stuff in 20-25rd $25 boxes and maximize profits.
