Any Ammo is better than an empty gun! Give the guy some credit for trying a function test with them. In a bad / desperate situation, I would load and shoot anything I could get my hands on. Sorta like the street gang - they use crap and still put people down.

My Kahr CW9 loves 115 gr ammo much better than 124gr & heavier ammo.
I would love to try some Hornady critical defense ammo, but I can't find it anywhere. Any suggestions? All of the mail order big boys are back ordered. I was able to find only 124gr Speer Gold Dot locally, and it shoots almost a foot low at 7 yards. I might just have to get used to it until the Hornady is out. Open to suggestions |

I run them thru the Kel-Tec. PF-9. Good and hit where I aim.

[QUOTE=cmb;1232396]I use the xtp bullet, loaded in a fiocchi case, they have been good to me, 115 grains feed very well in my gun and from those who are published I have read I have gatherd that anything above 125 grains in 9mm isn't as effective, and some agancies have gone down to 124 +P or +P+... the fiocchi rounds did weel in my personal tests and I ordered them from Cabela's had to wait about a month... I have enough now for a while...[/QUOTew
I have read this as well ; not using 147 gr. as it does'nt perform as good when compared to 115, with 124gr. being the ideal WASHINGTON DID’NT USE HIS RIGHT TO FREE SPEECH TO DEFEAT THE BRITISH, HE SHOT THEM

I like Critical Defense
They feel very smooth when I fire them at the range. They feed great in both of my firearms. They're light and very fast. Plus, they aren't heavy beasts in a full magazine.

I'll have to admit, I'm with Janq & Biker on this one...I'd sooner carry FMJ that I know works in my pistol than a JHP I haven't proven yet...
Get more, and shoot the heck out of it before you say the gun is good to go with it; and, since (as I read) the G26 is new, I'd be putting at least a couple hundred rounds of FMJ through it first to make certain it's reliable. But that's me; others may choose to do differently.
