What bullet weight do you run in your 9mm for 3Gun competition?

my G34 shoots half the group size (@35y) with 147s than it does with 115s.... I use Precision Delta

For the longest time I swore that I liked the 147's better, but now I'm starting to like the snappier 115's for faster splits.

Precision Delta 124 HP. Makes pretty round holes and is accurate.

147 coated and N310 or another fast powder. It's cheating, except not.

I have done a little testing with all three popular weights and have not seen any major differences in accuracy out of my 5" Walther PPQ.  Recoil feel is also not that different between them all when using Freedom Munitions Hollow Points (match style, not defensive style bullets).  I am using 147gr right now but will continue to perform more testing to see if there is truly a difference.

160gr Bayou bullets with 2.6gr of Titegroup moving around 830fps/133PF out of a CZ Shadow 2. They will also cycle in pretty much every gun. Going to be trying some 165gr Xtremes soon

I shoot 115's.  Cheap aluminum stuff.  Works fine for me.

Same here. With 3 grains of Titegroup gets me a load that doesn't move anything but the slide on my SP-01.

115 xtreme plated, mainly because they are cheaper than 147s and work fine.

I'm too lazy to reload so I just run factory stuff. Federal AE9FP seems to work well, but PMC 124 makes nice groups too. G34 Gen 5.
