9mm ammo recommendation

[mcm308 0]

I just got a case of Winchester 9mm Nato 124gr. Going to give it a go. I was going to get the Speer Lawman but I got this stuff cheaper. I will try out the Speer next. I want to get some Gold Dots and try those. Keep a few boxes in the house.

That Winchester 124 gr. NATO is a little hotter than std.,  not +p but you will notice it in the cycling of you gun.

Yes, suppose to be 10% hotter. If me no likey, I will try the Speer 124 Lawman.

I have all 9mm sig 226/229/239 and what I have to say applies to all three.

 

Defense ammo. I use 135gr +P Critical Duty.

 

Training/fun ammo. I don't like Remington/UMC, Herter, Magtech. I haven't tried S&B or Fiocci. I prefer WWB (115), Federal Champion (115) or Geco (124). I prefer these rounds because they consistently give smaller group sizes and let me get sights back on target faster. American Eagle is ok but often pricey I've found. I like Freedom 115 but have had light strikes with them so have stopped using it (they have a new "super match" round that I tried 100 of - very good but ~ 28c per).

 

I also use SG and they are excellent.

For what it's worth, in my hands the ammo does make a difference to accuracy and ease of the "one hole drill".

 

Enjoy!

If you like 135 grain you could start reloading and do your own. That's what I did for my wife's Shield. She didn't like how snappy the 115 grain was so I got my hands on a small pack (25) of 135gr RN and loaded them for her. Now, I have ~1000 of them loaded up and sitting in my ammo cabinet.

 

 

This signature is AWESOME!!!
