This is the accuracy champ in my CZ 75B pistol. I have put at least a case of the BH 124 grain +P loading (tipped with Hornady's XTP bullet) through the 75B in the past year, and it smacks the 25 yard plates like a laser.
I wish there were more chrono and ballistics testing on rounds like this: namely, fast loadings of the 9mm XTP bullet. I do recall reading that this Black Hills 124 grain load is good for 1200+ fps out of standard pistol barrels. I believe it: it feels a little stiffer than the Remington Golden Saber +P load, which I have seen clocked at 1180-1190 fps from a BHP. In contrast, Hornady's factory XTP loading is 100+ fps slower. With the deep-penetrating XTP bullet, I want speed, so Black Hills's offering seems to be the superior choice if you can handle the recoil. (I find it no problem to control, even in an alloy-framed compact like the CZ P-01.)
Anyway, I've never had the slightest problem with this ammo in two CZ pistols. It runs about $21 / 50 online, which isn't cheap but is a way better deal than competing +P defense loads from major manufacturers. It is hot, accurate ammo.
