124 fmj for plinking
147 hp for self defense

119 won't even cycle my slide

*115 grain won't even cycle my slide

This. Clerks at my lgs are always surprised when I tell them this.
>>
>>32825268
Either really I'd take a 124gr +p in a 17
>>
>>32825268
either is fine.
>>
>>32825494
147 is subsonic right
>>
There's no reason to buy anything but 147gr. The recoil impulse is much smoother, esp compared to 115gr.
>>
>>32825277
That loading is available outside of making your own?

>>32826543
>147 is subsonic
>he thinks bullet weight will make it subsonic
>>
>>32827541
147gr 9mm is in the 1000fps ballpark, it's subsonic
>>
>>32825268
Better for what, OP? Help us help you.

Reliable cycling? Suppressors? Terminal ballistics? Accuracy? Refine your question.
>>
>>32827541
F/m=a, faggot

>>32828220
For home defense, you projecting faggot.
>>
>>32827541
You're retarded

And so is everyone else advocating 147 grain for anything other than use with a suppressor. 124 grain is the best balance between weight and velocity for self defense. And 115 is almost always cheapest for plinking. Cycles my 19 just fine.

>Cycles my 19 just fine.

OP's question doesn't pertain to g19s, you small handed twink. Fucking kill yourself.

>>32828246
wew lad. It's after six Eastern Time and dark on the East Coast, but day/k/are is still here.
>>
>>32826263
It honestly surprises me a little bit. I have some fairly conservative 115 grain hand loads and they cycle without issue in my Glock 34.
