It depends on what gun. Just about any 147 gr load shoots best in my S&W, Beretta, or Taurus. Silvertips or Gold Dots in my Glocks. I don't think there are significant differences in bullet design to make one type absolutely superior to all others. No +P or +P+. If I want that I'll use a 357 SIG.
 
I voted "Other". As in the ones I bought at Academy Sports for about $80K out the door, about a year and a half ago.
Had to go back to reloading the 9mm when the price went thru the roof!

Speer Gold Dot. 124gr. +P or 147gr.

and/or cor-bon 124's

practice with rainer 124's tightly crimped over 6.6gr of power pistol
same poi/poa as the factory mades and same perceived recoil.
costing me 15 cents to make a $1.20 round.:D
 
most popular 9mm load

Georgia Arms 124 grain Speer Gold Dot +P+

In my 3 digit Kel-Tec 9mm, now termed P-11 but un-named when I bought it.. Carried with
Two Geco 124 FMJs as eighth and tenth rounds out of magazine (for barrier penetration).
Fired 500+ rounds of this over the past 12 years and it's 100 % reliable and quite accurate.
