IMHO today's JHP ammo from the major manufacturers is all good - Hydra-Shok, Golden Saber, Gold Dot, Ranger SXT, even the ordinary "JHP" . . . I suggest you go with whatever is most reliable in your particular handgun.
Using "+P" or "+P+" is a worthwhile upgrade if you have a sturdy gun.
If a JHP expands, you're ahead of the game. If it doesn't, you're no worse off than if you had ball.
There's something to be said for alternating ammo, or having a more penetrating load in your extra mag, on the theory that if you do need more than the statistical average of 2.7 shots, your opponents are probably behind cover.
FWIW, I use Remington 115 JHP +P in my Browning, Speer 115 Gold Dot +P+ in my Glock, Remington 230 Golden Saber in my .45, and Winchester 145 STHP in my 340SC. I just picked up some Winchester Ranger 127 JHP +P+ which I'll be trying in my Glock, as the Speer +P+ load is getting harder to find.
