What do folks with 9mm shoot?

[phronq]

Out of curiosity, I'm wondering what brands and/or grains of 9mm do people enjoy shooting with their handguns?

I'm told CZs aren't picky, but I'm as yet undecided about what I'll be feeding my SP-01.

I run a Glock and an FN HP. Mostly Winchester 115gr, but I do like 124gr when I can find it.

 

[explicent_content]

I run my CZ 75 with Wichester 115gr.

 

[foxbat]

Most of these units run best with 124 or 147 gr. 'pills'...
That's why you'll usually find 115gr. in stock....the rest is gone!

when shooting the CZ-* guns, don't use the winchester 147gr ammo - it's waaaaay too hot for it, and will be kicking the #### out of your slide lock's internals. I've lost many a slide lock that way (cracked/broken). The 115gr stuff was great, that's what I prefered.

Keep on eye on where the shell casings are ejecting/landing. If they are hitting the ground more than 5-6 feet away from you, your spring is not strong enough for the ammo, so get a new/replacement spring (I get mine from Wolf Springs) , or try a lower powered load.

Sig P226 I mostly shoot 115 grain but the gun prefers the 147 grain in the accuracy department...

HK's (USP and P7).

They eat whatever I feed them but it's usually 124 JHP or 115 JHP.

No problems with the 147's either.

I use 124 gr copper plate for 9mm and 125 gr copper plate for 357mag.

I haven't tried 147g in my 226 yet. Is there much of a difference in felt recoil?
( vs 115 and 124)

 

[Colin]

147 does feel different, closer to the 45acp. I don't get the impression that it's recoil is significantly different, 147 is subsonic, my gun (NZ-85) really likes the 124, the most accurate of the 3 weights for my gun.

For those of you who shoot sig p226's 9mm .. what have you found to be most accurate?

For those of you who shoot sig p226's 9mm .. what have you found to be most accurate? I shoot winclean 9mm 115gr

Winclean 115gr FMJ, only because its very clean burning... but i also shoot AmericanEagle/Fiocchi of the same loads

 

[pirate]

I shoot a browning high power.
It likes 115gr ball, Win mfg
Talons and gold dot work great (when in a free country)

 

[Nine]

My SP-01 likes 147gr american eagle.

 

[bluesclues]

NP 29 consumed lots of WWB usually 115 gr, but now that I reload she eats a steady diet of 125 gr RN Wolf lead.

I've been feeding my Beretta 92FS 124 Grain FMJ's. TMJ'S too on occasion

 

[maurice]

all 147gr win. I recently tried some 115gr and was surprised at the difference. The 147 has more kick. The 147 will be harder on your pistol. I think I will switch to 124gr, as I find the 115 to be snappy/flippy.

 

[rideauwrangler]

CZ-75 with 124 winchester.

 

[Boomer686]

I usually shoot 123gr FMJ out of my 5906 & Storm. Works fine.
