What SD ammo do you EDC in your Shield

Register to hide this ad
Shield 9 mm.
I cary alternating Federal HST 124gr +P and Winchester 124gr +P. in the same clip. Both proven to expand well. I target parctice with 124gr as well.
As a side note, i dedicate shooting one clip of SD ammo at each range session. Double-tap and one in the head before each session, than set this mag aside. after 200-400 target round (most of the time it's Aguila ammo - this is the only rounds in 124gr i can find at "low" for (today ) price).
After practice I finish SD ammo from the clip i set aside in the begining, just to make sure everything is reliable even after 400 rounds of "dirty" ammo.

On my longer barrel gun i practice and carry 147gr P (SD - Winchester Ranger Bonded and practice Winchester X-subsonic FMJ 147gr)

Either Corbon PowrBall 135 gr .40 S&W or McNett's Double Tap 135 gr. Nosler JHP? I have one in my flush mag, and the other in my extended. I really got them for my Full Size .40, and I know I'm losing velocity and muzzle energy in the shorter barrel, but I trust both rounds and they cycle well in both guns. Most important, they go where I send them, every time.

Maybe somebody can talk to me about good reasons to switch to a round designed for a short barrel. I'm open to change, I just kept on without changing when I got the Shield.
 
I carry Winchester PDX1 Defender 124gr+P for self defense ammo. I shoot well with it from my shield, and it's the most readily available to me.
 
Winchester Ranger T's 124gr. in just about everything now. Have some Golden Sabres, Critical Defense & HST also on standby.
 
Ranger t 147 or gold dot 124 +p ne good up ammo that functions on ur gun if acceptable hell if fmj are what feed use em
