Some of those fps on the +P loads have to be taken with a grain of salt.............. it all depens if you are shooting a 4", less than 4" or a 6' barrel with the 9mm loads.
Fed 115 +P+ at 1300fps out of a glock19 4" will read around 1236fps and a Speer 147gr out of the same gun will run 972 fps. Both will get 13-14" of penetration ,which is what we are all looking for in a SD load.

I am pretty sure the Rem UMC and the Federal 115 (9PB) loads use the same bullet............just have to see which works out best for you and the gun they are fired in, price might be the finall selection choice.
One note: on the youtube this Federal non+P load was fired into gel twice............both bullets failed to open up,when fired out of a 4" Glock 19. Never know,maybe the next box of ammo will expand?
Good shooting.
