Give us a list of shootings where 147 gr. HST was used, please. No gel tests, only Street results. I'll bet you can't find five. I only know of one and it was at contact distance.

Why turn the 9mm into a lumbering .38 Special when we have decades of superb Street results with 115 gr. +p+ and Speer 124 gr. +p? 147 gr. 9mm was a loser in the 80's and it's a loser now. Too slow. Penetration is merely part of the equation. Velocity works in the 9mm. Thousands of shootings with Fed. BPLE has shown all but the most oblivious that it is the way to go.
