Default What's your favorite SD loads in your 9ve?

What the title says.

I have the Champ FMJs in the gun for now. I know it's not an ideal SD loads but it's til I can buy some next month.

Any of y'all done WWB 147 HPs in yours? I'm thinking about these and that's what my PF9 is loaded with.

I like the mid-size rounds (124gr-127gr) and generally in +P or +P+ configurations. I tend to purchase Corbon DPX and Ranger-T. But pretty much any American made JHP is going to do what you want/need it to do (after testing in your gun for reliability). I have reviewed shootings locally where a guy was killed instantly with one shot from a WWB 115gr FMJ and another where a guy was shot 6 times with Corbon 125gr +P's and walked into the hospital. So in my opinion shot placement counts for a whole lot more than ammo selection.

So it's ok to use +P loads in this gun? The more power the merrier.
