op where do you have a source of the 124 stuff?

If you are asking about HST 9mm 124 gr. std. pressure, you have two choices:
P9HST1: LE Version, usually in 50 round boxes - $0.50 to $0.70/round
P9HST1S: Civilian Version, usually in 20 round boxes - $0.99 to $1.50/round
These have been tested by a few people and there does not appear to be any difference in ballistic, penetration and expansion performance. P9HST1S can be found more often than P9HST1, but at 2X the cost of the LE version. Like I said, it's hard to find HST 9mm ammo at reasonable prices. Right now, I see the LE version available at 2 places:
Bone Frog Gun Club - P9HST1 (50 rounds) $0.50/round
Eagle Eye Guns - P9HST1 (500 rounds) $0.65/round
I have no experience with Bone Frog Gun Club (caveat emptor), but I have purchased P9HST2 (147gr. std. press) from Eagle Eye Guns in March this year, and the experience was good. Eagle Eye Guns seem to have an elevated price level for HST LE ammo, but they have some still less than what you can find for the civilian version. I topped up my 147gr stash when I saw that they had some. I don't hoard it (some people say anything above a few hundred rounds IS hoarding) but I like to have around 500 rounds on hand. Same with the 124 gr. The last place I bought the 124 gr was at SGAmmo (top notch IMHO), but haven't seen any 9mm HST there for quite a while. I do shoot a couple of magazines worth out of my Shield at the end of most range trips (at least once/month)
