I did my first IDPA match in august, and I'm planning for more next season.
I'm new to the idea of loading to make power factor. Most of my favorite loads for 9mm are with 115 grain bullets and were just loaded to be reliable and accurate for range fun.
To make power factor, 115 grain needs to go 1100fps just to squeeze by. And many published powder loads w/ 115s never won't make 125 pf.
I'm thinking about switching to 124 or 147 grainers. What are some advantages/disadvantages of using 124 or 147 over 115?
