PedalBiker, I don't know where that fella got his information, but if he's correct than CIP has lowered their pressure rating for 9mm. I've been studying CIP since the early 90s when Vihta Vouri powders first became available in the U.S. The standard pressure for 9mm that they listed was 36,200 PSI CIP which was almost an exact duplication of the original 9mm pressure spec of 35,700 CUP dating back to 1902 before SAAMI changed it in the U.S. to 35,000 PSI/33,000 CUP for standard pressure and 38,500 PSI for +P which by coincidence happens to be very close to the original design pressure of 35,700 CUP. Accordingly, Vihta Vouri lowered their pressure max in their load guides for the U.S. market until they got down to around 33,000 PSI CIP last time I checked.
Concerning the CZ 75, in Europe you can buy it chambered in 9 X 21mm. At one time they were marketed in the U.S. but didn't catch on here. I believe that Magnum Research was the importer at the time, long before CZ set up their own operation in the U.S. The max pressure rating for the 9 X 21mm in Europe is 42,800 PSI CIP. The only difference between the 9 X 21 and the 9 X 19 is 2 more MMs of case length and a longer OACL. The only difference between CZ 75Bs in 9 X 21 and 9 X19 is a different barrel and a heavier recoil spring. It's pretty much common knowledge that European pistol makers as well as U.S. pistol makers of higher quality pistols are still making these guns for the original pressure spec of 35,700 CUP. CUP = Copper Units of Pressure and is an older form of pressure testing yet it is still in use today. Mainly in loading manuals in data for Magnum Revolvers, but 38,500 PSI (SAAMI +P) and 36,200 PSI CIP are very close to equal when measured in any three of the pressure measuring systems. One reason I have no qualms about using +P ammo in my 9mm pistols. In fact I handload it as I still use a manual where the 9mm pressure standard is 35,700 CUP as well V-V data which is 36,200 PSI CIP.
I point all of this out to hopefully relieve people of their fear in using +P 9mm defense ammo.
Shot placement is the #1 consideration regardless of caliber. With that said, the .40 S&W has a momentum and energy advantage in all cases when you compare common light/medium/heavy bullets in either caliber. For 9mm that would be 115/124/147 and in .40 S&W it would be 135/155 & 165/180. Having said all of that, there are some 9mm loads that come close to leveling the playing field like the 124 gr. +P SPEER Gold Dot, the 127 gr. Ranger +P+, Double Tap 124 gr. +P and the Double Tap 147 gr. +P+ that nearly duplicates the velocity of 155 gr. JHP loads in .40 S&W and has about the highest momentum I'm aware of in a 9mm loaed. Underwood also makes some very potent loads in 9mm. The real question becomes what level of recoil are you comfortable with and that you can shoot with good accuracy. If you can handle +P in 9mm, I'm only attempting to let you know you have nothing to fear in using them. If you plan to shoot them a lot, it might be best to go to a heavier recoil spring by 2 - 3 pounds in weight. It is also comforting when the pistolmaker states in their instruction manual that SAAMI +P is acceptable for use in their pistols when in reality it is no higher in pressure than the original design pressure for the 9 X 19mm, Parabellum, Luger.
