“Nothing stays the same, ‘cept old Fords and natural stone”.

Well Willy was right. Modern ammo has evolved and I’m not sure I’ve kept up. I think so but what do you think.

9mm in my Springfield compacts and subs, Speer Gold dot short bbl. 124

.45acp in the 1911 and H&K, Federal HST 230

yours?

I use that speer load or the Ranger T 147 grainers in my 9's. Also use the HST2 in the 45's along with Ranger T and Speer offerings in 230 standard velocity.

The 124 Speer is widely used by LE in the US with excellent results on the street.

I use HST 124g in 9mm and HST 240g in .45.

If I can’t find HST, I use Gold Dot.

I have about 350-400 rounds of HST, mostly 180 grain for the g23 and 100 rounds of Speer GoldDot 124 grain for if I swap out barrel to 9mm.
