Which one?  124 gr?  124 gr +P+?  147 gr?  Personal Defense?

I agree with Troy about the Personal Defense load.  However I personally perfer the 124 gr +P+ for my 9mm handguns and feel that the improved ballistics are worth the expense.  The standard 124 gr load is a very good all around load that is pretty easily acquired.

I got a box of HydraShok 124gr +p+ from a local gun shop that does a lot of police business for $25.

I picked some up for around $17 124 grain hydra-shok. The +P was the same price. Got this at [url]fsguns.com[/url]

I just found the +p+ stuff for 14.99 at CDNN Investments.

You'll probably have to look at their complete catalog (a .pdf file) to find it.

Unless you never practice, I suggest avoiding the downloaded "Personal Defense" loads.

Standard 124gr HydraShoks are about $17/50 from [url]www.cheaperthandirt.com[/url].  The +P+ load is much harder to find, and usually costs more.

Hydrashock Personal Defense.... a name I know too well.

I used a 135(?) grain Personal Defense in 40 Caliber to take a feral hog once.  Knocked her down, but she got right back up two-three seconds later and walked away.

The bullet ONLY penetrated 12-14 inches of muscle, shattered BOTH shoulder blades, broke her spine, shattered three upper spine blades and lodged under her skin on the exit side!

Personal Defense... indeed.

Not too many human target would walk away from the injury.  The bullet actually performed flawlessly.  The spine was not damaged, therefore she was stunned, mortally wounded, but not killed instantly.
