Best place for 9mm ammo and best carry ammo?
Looking to find a place either in South Florida or Online that offers a decent price for 9mm ammo. Looking to get a decent stock pile of range ammo together and want something that is decent and wont destroy the interior of my Shield.
Also, any suggestions for the best or most desired 9mm carry ammo. Right now I carry Hornady 9mm, Critical Defense HP.
I've heard many people talk about the Remington Golden Sabers but I've never shot them.
Any suggestions for either question?

personally, i think your hornaday critical defense is the way to go...but i do not have experience with the remington golden sabers.
As for places to find 9mm...best of luck trying to "stockpile" ammo...best bet i have found is to go to a ffl dealer, as they have many connections for getting ammo(atleast mine does)
you can always check buds or cheaper than dirt...usually a good place to start

Not everyone agreeswith Hornady Critical Defense.

Currently the best range ammo is whatever you can find.

Cannot help with finding ammo but as for carry ammo I am sold on the Speer 9mm 124gr Gold Dot +P's. NYCPD uses these with very good results and the Gold Dot bullet itself in all calibers have a very good reputation.

Now ive found a few places that have 9mm ammo for range and stuff and the prices range from 21.99-27.99 for a 50 round box.
I personally like the Hornady rounds. Havent had a problem with them yet and they are easy to shoot. Gonna go look at the golden sabers and the gold dot

best place for 9mm ammo
I would suggest for range ammo try Georgia Arms. I buy in bulk of 1000 can heat and I have not had any missfires or bad ammo from them. I purchase .40 S&W for my Springfield XD. They have had an increase of about $40.00 on the 1000 rounds of bulk ammo. They ship fast and right now about three to four week wait. All lot of their brass is from the NYC Police Department. As for duty ammo, I have been using Hornady Critical defense and I am quite happy with the ammo. Never had a missfire and I am about to try their Critical Duty ammo. I have tried Golden saber and I never had a problem with it. I would try shooting quality ammo from the prominent ammo manufactures in your gun and see what works best. One brand of ammo may not work in your gun while another seems to perform the best.

If your fine shooting reloads for the range, like me, then you can get some decent prices at these sites.

Ya gotta make regular stops through your local guns stores too... never know when they'll have a pile and it doesn't last long.

So far Hornady's Critical Defense/Critical Duty has no street record. We have no idea how well it works (or doesn't work) in real humans. Why people continue to be Hornady's guinea pigs, I have no idea.

I just recently found this place online and they are in south florida. They are a little lighter today on selection but generally seem to have good selection of Speer, Winchester, Remington and Federal PD and LE loads (regular and +P) in more economical 50rd boxes. You might also check shoot straight. At least my local store has had no shortage of Win Ranger 147g RA9SXT at $30 for 50 and that's what I been carrying lately. I found that online shop looking for 45 acp which they have a nice selection of.
