Corbon DPX 115+P performs well. IN a short barrel the gold dots 124+P did not perform well at all failing to expand 6-7 out of 10 times. They did perform better out of a full size duty weapon
I have a nephew that is a federal agent, his recommendation for 9mm was the Federal HST 124 gr. They are free to carry any load on a recommended list, but based on all the testing the federal agencies do the Federal HST performed best. For duty he uses HST 147 gr for home protection he uses the HST 124 gr.
