Noted competition shooter Todd G. Took an M&P9 FS to 67,000 rounds sand shot the above load in the program along with others.
If I decided tomorrow to change loads it'd be the 147gr. Federal HST standard pressure.
+P+ was an attempt to get .357 Magnum ballistics outta the 9mm, if you want that then get a .357 SIG chambered pistol or the Magnum!
9mm works ya just gotta practice.

Plus one on the 147 standard HST. if it can be found, good old Winchester Silvertip super X in standard 115 gr. are still awesome. 1225 at the muzzle, 1150 at 25 yds. that stuff goes in my XDS 9mm right nice. the Barnes tac x, ( i think) is a favorite among the local LEO set. it's hard to find though.
