Just bought the gun 3/17/23.  Only ammo the dealer had left was a 50 round box of Winchester Ranger 115 gr +P+.

Safe to shoot it?

Shouldn't be a problem.  I've shot it out of all of mine, and while snappy, in modest amounts shouldn't hurt anything.  

I'll tell you, though, there are Boomers who love the stuff and might pay $$$ for what they call the Illinois State Police load.  Buy the ammo, get regular anmo on line, and try to sell off the +P+ stuff to someone whose head is stuck in 1981.

I shot some 124gr +p through my Macro with no issue. Actually I think hot ammo is where the Macros comp really shines. Using standard velocity 115/124gr ammo, the comp doesn't do much IMO but you can really feel it make a difference with the hot stuff
