What 9mm to trade for my Sig P220??

[MP-44]

I recently acquired an Sig P220, case, 5 Sig SS mags & Serpa holster. I was excited about the pistol until I priced ammo at Wally. WW white box, .45acp @ $26.96 vs 14.56 for 9mm

Now I am thinking I want to stay with just 9mm for pistols. Other than a Glock ( already have a 17 ) what hi cap 9mm would be a good trade?

Walther P99, Styer M9A1, Sig 226, Beretta M9 ??????

I would say

226 or a USP or a browning HP

Those are my top 3 choices

Sig P226, Springfield XD, or CZ.

The cost of ammo is what got me started reloading and I have never regretted it.

no 9mm
walmart blazer brass is 10.00 for .45

 

[Tezcatlipoca]

226



Dont downgrade.

I've got an XD 9mm I'd trade for a 220.

Start handloading. you can make lead .45 acp's for about 8-9 cents each versus 23 cents a piece for WWB. Just start keeping your brass!

Keep the .45.

There is cheaper ammo out there.

CZ 75 SP-01. Awesome gun. Kinda heavy, but 18+1 capacity and accurate as all get out. Heck, you can't go wrong with any CZ 9mm, except for some have triggers that feel slightly weird. But, everything's a trade in this life and its never anything that a little tweaking won't fix.

Sig 226, or USP.

1) keep the .45

2) if not, SIG 226 or Walther P99

If the larger grip of a 226 still feels good to you I'd stay with Sig. But the others have a good point in looking for other ammo brands. S&B is good clean stuff that is way cheaper here compared to the white boxes. You have a fine pistol in that 220, and I'd hate to see you kick yourself later just because of some ammo prices. Another tip is try not to go retail on your ammo and buy online; you can save even more then.
