For range use and SD/HD? I generally prefer 124 bullets, but I've only shot a handful of 147 gr bullets a long time ago. 115 gr bullets generally shoot lower than I like, that plus hyped up velocities in SD loads generally cause me to shoot a lot lower than I like. However, I am really tempted to give golddot's 115 gr +p+ HP a chance. They seem to be a little less aggravating to find than hst rounds.
Do you change bullet weights with different guns/barrel lengths?
I guess my main question is do you like the fast and light or the slower and heavier bullet (or the in the middle 124 gr)?
Also, why is there no 147 gr +p+ ammo? I'm not a reloader, but I was thinking maybe the heavier bullet is a little longer and the extra powder needed would cause unsafe pressure levels, but I really have no idea. I'd love to get a hold of the +p hst in 147 gr, but it always seems to be out of stock when I'm ready to buy.
Before it even comes up, I know any of the stated rounds will do its job if the shooter does. I'm just curious on everyone else's opinions/preferences.
