I did a forum search but cannot find any info on +P ammo
I found a gift certificate in a kitchen drawer for 50 dollars from Santa Claus from Midway that hasn't been used yet. Figured might be a good time to experiment with factory ammo in my older (10 or so yrs old) PM 9. Most guns have the +p on the barrel somewhere if they can handle +P ammo. I don't see this anywhere.
Speer has one for short barrel pistols "Speer Gold Dot Short Barrel Ammunition 9mm Luger +P 124 Grain Jacketed Hollow Point" but they are +P as are many of the currently available cartridges.
I don't want to beat up my gun needlessly but would love to chronograph these and see what they will do.
Anyone know about +P ammo?
Federal HST Micro 150 gr 9mm
With modern high tech ammo it seems that +P isn't as relevant as it used to be.
Lucky Gunner Labs has some comprehensive short barrel test results.

I've found I like heavy for caliber 147 gr standard pressure in all my 9mm guns.
Very soft shooting and groups better in my hands.
Usually run Federal HST 147 gr.
But I did pick up a couple boxes of these today at Cabela's
Federal HST Micro 150 gr 9mm :cool:
