I'm getting a FNP-9 this week and want to know the best ammo to get for stopping.

[Dave R]

Everybody has a different opinion on what's best.

If you go with a good quality jacketed hollow point, that's about as good as you can do. I'll let others argue Cor-Bon vs. Gold Dots, etc.

(I use Speer Gold Dots.)

I doubt there's enough of a difference
between the high grade defensive ammo
to worry about

Buy a selection of Speer,Winchester,
Hornady,Federal,Cor-bon etc,etc and
find the one thats most accurate out
of your pistol.It seems that most
people like 115 to 124 gr but some
favor the 147gr hollow points.

This is hot stuff, considering the ISP load is a 115gr at 1300fps. This is a 124gr GD at 1300+fps in a G17. I cycled two boxed through my G19 and G34 Friday to check reliability -- 100%.

This is my new carry load for low-density bystanders.

For Self Defense, you can't go wrong with the Speer Gold Dots...I use the short barrel 124gr+P stuff in my G19/26...

BlackHills and Doubletap.

winchester white box for practice. improved accuracy version uses hollow base bullets which work great.

I'm partial to Remington Golden Sabers.

I like Rem GS. Comes in 25 instead of the typical 20. I also have used Hornady before in my USP45, but it seems to have a lot of unburned powder.

With the Remington Golden Sabers, they seem to work just fine and clean. I use them in my USP45 and USP9. 124gr +P variant in the 9mm.

I love the 124gr GoldDots.

Practice with several and let the targets tell you which one to use.

Plus, it's a good excuse to use with the wife if she complains about your ammo expenditures.
