What is your carry ammo?

[mosesiscarryingapdw]

9mm Speer Gold Dots +P 124gr.

When I carried a G30(.45acp) my ammo of choice was Speer 185gr GDHP.

Since I have gone back to my G17 for my carry needs, I load it up with 147gr. TAP. I also run this in my Keltec PF9.

 

[JosephR]

Craig you know TAP is the same as Hornady XTP- look at the two boxes together next time you are out. At least at Cabela's, the 20 round boxes are labeled with muzzly energy, 50ft (?) energy and muzzle velocity. $4 a difference in a 20 round box, same bullet, none of the data is different either. Black nickel cases are pretty though!

 

[bigcraig]

JosephR, IIRC the Hornady XTP comes in 20rd boxes, the TAP I buy comes in 25rd boxes.

Well since I changed my potential carry weapon to a .40 I'm carrying 180gr Gold Dots in it now, but considering changing that out to the Federal HSTs in 180gr also. Just need to try em out.

 

[JosephR]

Craig- Gotcha, but look at the labels

Ri22o and I shot some 9mm 147gr HST over the weekend. It gets a bunch of these from him and me. We shot some phonebooks and recovered the rounds. They look identical to every picture I've seen on the net.

Yeah I keep hearing that the HST's expansion is really consistent. I just need to find some 180gr ammo! Midwest only carries the 165gr I believe but I prefer a heavier bullet weight so I'll keep looking.

 

[Lars]

I have my USP loaded with the 200gr +p Hornady HTX
I put 200 of them through the pistol with no problems. The 200gr +p shoot fairly similarly to the 230gr standard rounds.

 

[obijohn]

usually hydrashoks in whatever caliber. been known to carry gold dot or corbon.

 

[WestSider]

Speer GoldDot HP's in all of my handguns.
