Thanks for all the replies. Now it's time for me to try a few different rounds you've all suggested.

If you want some of the hottest ammo made in 9mm, try these places online....they wont cost much more if any than high end off the shelf 9mm:

*Underwood Ammo
*Georgia Arms
*Buffalo Bore
*Elite Ammunition
*Double Tap (his stats are lower than he claims, but still very hot ammo)

I use Hornady critical defense hollow points. They are 115g nickel plated. They feed extremely well in my Glock 19. I haven't tried them yet but Hornady also makes a line called critical duty. They are pretty much the same casing as the critical defense only the actual bullet is larger and the powder is loaded at 135g. But I have never had one problem with any of the ammo that I use. I just trust Hornady the most.

This is what I carry. I wouldn't be afraid to go back to carrying 147gr gold dots either.

After quite a bit of research I settled on Winchester PDX1 147 grain for my Ruger SR9C.
